Exactly. None of the patches I care about have gone anywhere for years. 
Two of them were done by others, apparently using the right processes, 
and still went nowhere, so it doesn't encourage me to attempt to even 
learn the process to make a more appropriate contribution of mine 
(which, sadly, I fixed too many different bugs in one file or two files, 
and have not split them into individual patches). Another has recently 
been making some progress... I guess that means I don't care enough 
about them, to fight to force them through the system, it is easier just 
to apply the patches to my installation... but that is a sad state of 
affairs.
