Writing as a mere observer, all the communication complaints that you
have made could be turned back onto you.

My free advice to fix the decades long last minute code crunch
is for you to lead by example. Appoint someone in your pmemd group
to be developer-communications officier; spell out your plans in a public
manner, post updates and deadlines. Then when someone shows up unannounced
with a last minute feature, you will have the clout to convince us that
they missed the boat due to their poor planning.

amber-developers.ambermd.org is a user in bugzilla.
I'll start debugging this off-list.
