I wish more FOSS devs would invest their talents in that last 5% of polish and refinement, instead of continually inventing new projects that never get fully-baked.
The first 95% of the project takes 95% of the time and effort, and the last 5% of the project takes 95% of the time and effort...
Seriously, getting something up and running is fun; the "last 5% of polish and refinement" is work, and takes the kind of attitude that separates professionals from amateurs.
