Easy?? !!

Do you think it's easy to work for days non-stop on an improvement to a 
page only to see it ignored?

And then I pick a new page and work on it for days, and it gets ignored 
again.

And then I pick another, and another, and another, and everything I submit 
goes ignored but I keep working nonetheless. And you call that easy? I've 
worked hard to make improvements to the support page, home page, todos 
page, ssh key page, contribution page and others. Of those, the only that 
was accepted was the contribution page. And I had to fight tooth and nail 
for it over several months. Yes, months. Not weeks, months. I have worked 
on several other proposals and nothing gets through. I was one of the 
founders of the OpenClipArt project, because I was hoping that OOo would 
use the clipart. But inspite all my efforts, nothing has been accepted. 
There are now 3,000 high-quality public domain clipart images there 
waiting to be used, and we're not using them. I've tried to have *some* of 
them accepted in, and got nowhere.

And you say this is easy?

Both are broken.
