There was some "I haven't seen CivicActions contribute much" recently -
take a look through the posts - it is sprinkled there and about.

It is already happening - we have always wanted to be in sync with
Drupal (the mothership) since we started.  It has been an adventure
getting there.  We are *fully* committed to contributing back to the
community.  BTW - Owen Barton has been killing bugs, and we recently
funded some of Allie Micka's work which was rolled into some modules
available to the community.  We "get" it - just give us a little time to
execute.
