Sunrise is not that good example. I liked to use it as an example but
over time you start to see how degenerated it becomes. It seems that
the bond between people is pretty poor there, and many of the packages
lack proper maintenance.
Some of them simply don't build at all and wait for a random Sunrise
user to fix them. Then they lay unmaintained once again, and the story
repeats.
