Part of good UX is consistency and getting that kind of requires a consistent team or an all-knowing overlord. My guess is that's why it's hard to get to and keep a good UX in OSS. Once the UX is good there shouldn't be much work for a designer to do and they're not gonna sit around, not getting paid, just to make sure someone doesn't mess it up, that is boring.
