That's because until Stream existed, there wasn't really much of a way to give back that didn't make the project deviate from its core mission. We have absolutely taken contributions from the community in the past, but most of the fixes offered were to fix bugs we didn't "own".
I don't think it's *entirely* fair to say that the fixes offered weren't relevant to CentOS, when no one outside the core maintainers had access to the build process, where fixes relevant to CentOS could be offered.
