"someone else" should not have to write the tests. You'll have a much easier time (still not guaranteed) getting patches applied (or even looked at) if tests are included. This isn't unique to ZF contributions -- try sending a patch to the Doctrine project without a test :) Put yourself in the shoes of the person searching the tracker for things to close out. With ~1k tickets, what would you search for? Issues with or without tests? Would you want to try to figure out what a contributor was thinking by means of telepathy or by simply scanning the tests. BTW, I promise that last statement wasn't meant to be flippant :) - I also hope your contributions get a good look soon.
