No one is promising anything...its your free will to contribute and its free will of others to test and its up to devs eventually commit it..if something else is in your mind waste of time, no one forces you to do anything...

You are missing a point about OpenSource, its not like you can post some kind of code (in which you have put a lot of effort to do *congrats on that*) and developers will commit it instantly, everything goes in a process, and its not like all the code contributed will be commited, some will eventually, but other code wont (even if its ok!) this is due the lack of time/manpower to test every single contribution, this is why we depend a lot of the community testing and reporting, if a contribution gathers a lot of attention from the community the odds of geting commited quickly are high (if its stable enough)

What aiki and tpb said is true, but it doesnt mean that you should "not contribute anything" just because it might not get committed. As an example, if you look through the different forums you'll see a ton of contributions I made, most of them didnt get committed for different reasons: unstable/exploitable code (believe it or not, this is the case in alot of contributions, but we get much better with time ), not enough interest, too custom code, not enough test results (this is sad... but not enough people take the time to test and report ), etc...
On the other hand, some of my contributions did get committed.

However, all the code I contributed which didnt get committed wasnt lost totally. Looking at later contributions I realized that quite a few of the scripts I had contributed had been re-written (cleaner code, etc...) from my original scripts, which is fine btw. If something you contribute doesnt get committed, it might inspire someone else who will improve on it and that contribution might get committed. This is a team effort, and the "author name" on some script/class really is irrelevant in the end, it's the team result that matters

Also, the main thing about Open Source, is that "someone else" may find your code useful and use it!

You are not contributing to L2j only, but to the L2j Community itself!
