Why?
Contributors to GCC: ~600 (based on svn) review
Contrubutors to glibc : ~300 (based on git) review
Contributors to binutils: ~600
Contributors to busybox: ~300
Contributors to DPDK: ~125
Now I grant you that dpdk is a newer, much more niche project, but its
disingenuous to state that we _have_ to do things differently to reach a wider
audience. We can, but its by no means a prerequisite to gainining a wider
audience.
