This is no different from many open-source projects.
Most of the comitters try to do as many changes as possible,
mostly white-space, formatting, style, spelling, etc.
When they do something more serious (not too serious: no one
of those zombies is able to really _code_ up anything, so they're
'refactoring', 'cleaning up', etc) they usually screw up things
horribly; this, in turn, is a good occasion to engage in snobby,
elitist 'technical' discussion about things they don't have a
f. clue about, exchange esr-style witticism & superstitions, etc.
