Since all kinds of interesting tab mock-ups showed up and there was a lot of interesting discussion, which all came to nothing, i just assumed Camino is kind of a "closed" open-source project.
I don't think that's a fair statement at all. None of the mockups came with code, and none were so compelling that some coder said "I'll drop the other 157 good ideas that I consider important and do THAT". Run to any other project's mailing list and start making lots of impassioned noise* about how you think they should do things, without supplying code, and see where you get. Unless they have surplus developer time or you really catch someone's fancy, at best it will come to nothing. At worst, it will come to flames :-).
Really, this project seems to value user feedback and makes more changes based on what its non-coding and non-paying users want than nearly any other I've seen. I'm actually impressed with the number of mockups that *have* come to something.
Just my 2 cents...

[* By "lots of impassioned noise", I mean _lots_... in the old tab discussion, IIRC, one zealous individual posted something like 125 messages about the topic to this normally low-ish traffic list over 2 weeks!]
