Hi!

most people there's not much reason to maintain stuff they don't need
all they get is a bigger ego. If a "user" wants a feature he should step
up

In this particular case it doesn't work - one can step up as much as one wants but if this feature is not accepted then no amount of stepping up is going to get it into the code. If it is accepted, there would be no problem making the patch and finding somebody to support it.

Voting? Oh my.
I don't agree to all stuff in the book, but in general it's a good read:

Well, I agree voting is far from being ideal. Do you have any other proposal that would allow to arrive to some decision? Like not endlessly churning the same arguments on the list but have some decision?

So back to the original topic: In a 50:50 scenario I'd certainly give
more weight to people I know for contributing for a long time than

How about Rasmus and Andi? ;) They are both "aye"s.
