It’s like this everywhere, you’ll always be initially met with circumspection. Passer-by contributions are not a help, helping out new contributors is a lot of effort that not every maintainer wants to deal with. You want to help, that’s great, but you’re not entitled to helping.
Gnome might be a club, but it’s definitely not closed, you just need to put in the effort to show you’re worth having around.
No thanks. I don’t want nor need to be in the club. Nor will I ever go out of my way to show people that I’m “worth having around” in my free time. I don’t think that’s healthy.
If they don’t see my worth or I am actually worthless to have around I’ll search for someplace else. Like I said already: I have never had that problem in any other project.
Also I don’t feel entitled to have my patches merged. I can maintain them myself if necessary.

If you think there’s a problem, you should report it.
Gotta stick around to find out.
