Thanks, Richard for responding. I completely understood your point and appreciate the effort you people make to maintain these repositories.
But as a contributor, It encourages me to contribute more when my work gets noticed/criticized/accepted by the community. Anyways, I hope that the community resolves these issues as soon as possible so that there won't be much delay in updating the patches sent by the contributors.
