I disagree. I don't think the article is saying that. The article basically says you should have some connection to the project. This is very much the traditional view - you should contribute to open source by scratching the itch you have. > I'm not a particularly good programmer but I have just recently been trying to contribute to an open source project (Apparently doing it the "wrong way" according to the article!) and its going amazing! Why do you think the article is saying you are doing it the "wrong way"?

Hmmm after re-reading the article I think you might be correct! > Heck, with proper supervision the kids themselves can help too. You can do open source as a beginner, you don't need to be a senior for that. > But you need to be involved in the project and act accordingly, you don't just go and throw bricks around. I guess I am doing it the correct way! I think the author should have also mentioned this point in the how to contribute the right way so its more obvious.
