Not true, either. Not everybody is capable of programming in C, even if taught. That they think they can is the root cause of a lot of horrible software around. Me, I learnt C. I earned my potatoes programming once, not so long ago. I programmed in C and other things. And no, I'm not capable of maintaining an existing C Linux project. I know very well the kind of effort it needs...
I agree with your statement. However for contributing small things, look at the code to track down a bug doesn't require very good probramming skills. I'd rather take a patch for a bug that's not idea and rework it than have to track down every single issue myself. A lot of my work involves drivers. There we often encounter problems which we cannot reproduce ourselves.
Ok, I just posted a bugzilla, with the solution: 561317. But it will be closed or ignored, I'm almost sure :-( - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
