Joseph Scott: we can definitely use more people looking at the XML-RPC and AtomPub code.

My experience matches Jeff’s, namely that post 2.3; contributions of time in terms of showing up on the IRC channel; producing and commenting on both bug and feature requests; and in terms producing actual patches, rarely produces the desired result.  An en example, this ticket was explicitly opened based on a request from Joeseph in order to obtain feedback, and to date it has received none.

That’s fine — I for one certainly have plenty of other places to focus my attention — but if the WP team wants more people looking at ares such as XHTML, Atom and/or AtomPub code, IMHO there needs to be a person with commit access to the codebase who is actively engaged in facilitating these efforts.
