If we each stick to our own patches and solutions to open source projects, we can each experience the same frustrations individually.
I'm looking forward to that.

I think we all encounter these moments of frustration, but I'm pretty sure anger (or ranting, for that matter) has never brought me any solution, on the contrary.
To me, and I guess many others, the balance is still very much on the positive side. Yes, there are headaches and frustrations, but they just don't outweigh all the benefits we can get in return.

For all projects I'm involved in, Metacello solves more issues that it creates.
Take a look at simple Metacello configurations to get started. The configuration of Zinc is pretty simple. Read the doc, ask questions, move forward. 

As a community, we can help each other move forward.
