Honestly, I think that now OpenStack is better known, most people 
wanting to implement their own features are just thinking about that, 
and not trying to be in the community.

I could review how many people provide more than one patch, but I think 
we'd see that now we have more contributors but not really helping 
OpenStack, just trying to get what they want.
