> It is correct. Just because your livelihood might hinge on a specific project doesn't mean that its developers have any obligation to accept your patches.
I think you responded to the wrong comment, since I didn't say anything about being obligated to accept patches.
I responded to "You're contributing back to the community you've taken from" which implies that one has some obligation to accept a patch (calling it a contribution). Just because you're offering doesn't mean that others are obliged to accept or even review it.
