The short version is that I've been playing Spring: 1944 on and off for ~4 years, and started contributing to it a year ago.
I've been playing Zero-K for slightly less than a year but haven't contributed there more than a line and a half of code.
I've also taken a small part in making Gravitas, the LD32 project, mostly in the sound/music department.

jamerlan wrote:What motivates you to develop smth in spring engine?
A good question, I had to think a bit before answering
I enjoy seeing the results of my work, and having other people enjoy these results. Spring as a mature engine is a platform that allows me to achieve interesting and complicated goals whether by contributing to a game or to the engine itself.

This may not be the answer to your question but I think the most remarkable thing in the engine is the sync/network code that allows 20 players on different hardware and OS to play games together, while being almost transparent to the game dev.
Fortunately though, it already exists and works well, so I don't think that's a place I'm likely to contribute,
