I can only agree. Recently I wanted to get better at C and started to poke around in wget's bug tracker. I found an appropriate bug and asked twice on the mailing list if my suggested implementation would be okay. No answer in both cases.

Then I just went and wrote the code, put up a repo on Launchpad. I was soon getting many helpful comments.
