Sorry, can't stop myself from writing it.

Depends what you want. It's sure the best way if you want to learn something.
I enjoy the coding and learning along the way, but I am interested (not only but mainly) in the result. I am no developer. I am a user who knows enough about coding for mostly (valid for smaller projects and scripts) getting what he wants.

Not sure about that. Maybe you have some examples for what you mean.
Not what he (B. Brecht) meant with this sentence and maybe only because Caesar passes my way sometimes for my distinct penchant for latin, and though it could be misunderstood. But it sums it up in some way.
"Caesar beat the Gauls. Did he not have even a cook with him? "

If thats a community for "learning to code" it's fine. But if it's a community for "improving maemo" it's dumb.
We could already have this integrated.
