In reference to the difficulties outlined regarding becoming a |
| 8 |
developer above, I am in the process of becoming a dev without any |
| 9 |
contact with developers beforehand except for filing a bug that |
| 10 |
probably annoyed devs more than helped :P I contacted the recruiting |
| 11 |
group in response to a requirement for developers and they were glad |
| 12 |
to get the process started provided that I showed evidence that I |
| 13 |
would be an asset, mainly through input on bugs currently open. |

I doubt that I am the only one who has this story, but that doesn't |
| 16 |
mean your claim in #2 could not have happened to other people. Did |
| 17 |
you have any specific situations you were referring to when you wrote |
| 18 |
that? |
