Not even Jakarta lets just anyone commit a patch. I doubt that Linus
does either. OS has gatekeepers just the same as CS -- we just wear our
code on our sleeves ;-)

OS does not have to mean that anything else would change. Alot of people
work fulltime on OS projects. Who gets commit access is up to whoever
owns the project. Publishing the code doesn't mean you loose control
over it. It just means other people can help you test it, then tell you
why it breaks, and even how to fix it.
