Actually I think it's a fine way to build a community.  A community of
like minded individuals who want to produce something for an intended
audience, and a community of like minded consumers who wish to consume
that which you are building.

Instead what we have now is fiefdoms of different strategies for
producing updates and consumers who are getting mixed results from
different parts of the operating system.  Nobody is getting what they
really want, either every package reasonably updated everywhere all the
time, nor a conservative stable and bugfix only update approach.  So
nobody is truly happy, which I think is the real terrible way to build a
community.
