I think (and indeed I really hope) that your anxiety is not founded.

  The Zope Contribution Initiative took Python as model.
  There, you have beside contributors a bug tracking system
  where problems can be reported and patches posted to.

  I do not know the details of Python development process,
  especially the legal agreements behind it.
  But somehow, it seems to work...
