well. i will say exactly that!

because you use cvs and and you code contributions are simple as 
submitting PR from github, there are no interested parties submitting 
anything. and because website is outdated nobody even finds the project.

and:
   submitting PR from github, he/she does not need  to be member of rpm5 
*team*!

do not confuse team-member vs contributors.
