Isn't there a psychological barrier to submitting pulls for 
someone else's source code when it is not clear it will be 
welcome?  Plus encouraging others to write docs etc. A community 
project will still be de facto owned by the author, but 
perception of its status is clearer.

Any benefit from Mars would come from purely human factors, but 
sometimes these are important.
