I find that most mature projects are incredibly hesitant to accept patches.

I have found critical bugs in some projects and the people with repo access let the pull request sit there for a year or more.

I've experienced this too. It only makes me hesitate when I have something to contribute, knowing the fighting I'll have to do for something as simple as better documentation.
Any examples/PR links?
Sorry but I'm not willing to make a public enemy out of any of these projects just to prove a point.
