Take, for example, phpPgAdmin. It was originally forked from phpMyAdmin, but we've just done a complete rewrite (because phpMyAdmin was written my mysql/php weenies who couldn't code nicely to save their lives...).
However, it's me doing 99% of the coding, Rob doing advocacy and a heap of people who send in translations. Translations are very nice, but I so rarely get actual code contributions.
phpMyAdmin even implements it's OWN comment and foreign key feature!!
