Am I to imply from the above that the FSF and GCC developers are
incapable of working on mission critical projects with specific
schedules?
The FSF doesn't work on *any* projects directly.
"GCC developers" are not a homogeneous set of people. Some people
currently doing work on GCC are indeed people who are not used to
dealing with schedules, but many others are. However, nobody can work
on "specific schedules" without specific *funding* for those schedules
because projects that *are* funded will take priority.
If you want something done, you need to approach specific people who
are doing the work and solicit proposals from those people as to
funding and schedules.
