It's no longer community driven and as such has turned into a dictatorship by central committee, albeit one that hands out source code and doesn't charge for the end product.
Worse, the open source nature of the project appears to have caused a degree of intolerable smugness and self-righteousness amongst those who are on this "Central Committee".
Orwell's Animal Farm explains it all.
The lesson seems to be that as soon as a small group of people, from within a larger group, suggest to everyone else that it would be a lot easier all round if they were in control, that those people should be thrown off the project on the spot, regardless of their skills or prior contribution and never allowed to return.
