It's too bad Karoly is not here to tear into this recommendation as well.

Khalid - In regard to your recent response on the 'I unsubscribe'
thread, you earn more of my respect with each balanced post you place on
the mailing list. By listening here for about two years and working
with Drupal heavily for the past year I've learned enough to be helpful
on the list and in issue queues, but I must say I do hold back most of
the time, not wanting to raise the ire of some of the stronger
personalities in the community.

Please don't hold back. We do need feedback and discussion. One concern (and it IS valid) is a high signal to noise ratio. I'll use the Documentation list as an example: lots of talk, few contributors actually adding / editing handbook pages.

Same goes for here: I know I "left" the list for some time (back in 2002~ish) because I hit a wall in terms of my contribution ability -- I didn't code enough to move the actually *codebase* forward, which is the focus of THIS list. I came back when I was able to contribute more fully.
