I want to note that I am not totally against more controlled 
contributions - but that is totally different type of 
collaboration that implies much more formal process, as well as 
willingness to actually manage such team. There is a big mindset 
gap between "I did those things I needed and can share them" and 
"I am going to work on things you consider important", those are 
not interchangeable.
