Do "real" open source projects issue releases after every patch?

I've recently submitted a small patch to Android and it showed up in the repository immediately. While there is some development done in secret, not everything is. You can git blame and email the developers and they will probably talk to you.

(My experience is perhaps different because I have a @google.com email address, but the developers are actually nice people that do value open source, as far as I can tell.)
