Ok then would you please not label the people who work in their own
forks as "dweeb's" because
1. I think as an expression it went out of date before I was born.
2. It is way to hostile as is the all caps
3. If we want people to contribute directly to the mainline belittling
them for working on their own is not going to help.

I get that you are frustrated but remember we are not entitled to
dictate how other people spend their time.
