This also talks about contributions, but is Sun yet ready for contributions?

Many byte sized contribution have been integrated but I am missing bigger 
contributions. This is not a problem with missing contributions but with the
sad news that Sun does not offer an infrastructure for contributions.

As long as there are people who like to contribute and offer their software and
even did get an integration approvement (PSARC) and integration does not happen 
because the integration is not done at Sun's side, something is wrong.

If you have money to spend, please don't spend it in an anniversary celebration 
but in the missing infrastructure.
