It is a massive and complicated tangle of reasons why UXers don't, or try to and fail, or try to and fail and try to and fail and then give up, to FOSS.

Some reaons are, and I say these with the utmost respect for FOSS contributors, they:
- don't fully understand what design is
- don't have the energy/resources to work with designers
- equate all design with icons and making things "sexy"
- aren't interested
- don't know how to find us (designers)

On the other hand, lots of designers don't contribute, or fail because, and I say these with respect to (most :smile:) designers:

- they don't understand Free and Open Source Software philiopsophy
- think they are the most important person on the project
- aren't willing to be part of the commiunity and learn
- can't/dont want to understand the users are vocal
- equate it (all) with for profit software
- find distributed decision making difficult
