This is also my impression.  In addition to what others have noted, I
think this goes along with GNOME going more professional.

I think that it would be better if we had more "non-professional"
contributors, but more in the sense that we always want and need more
contributors.

In order to achieve that I think we're doing what we can, e.g. be
present at events like FOSDEM, have a good story for new contributors,
enabling people to collaborate in person.

Cheers,
