Here is good. ;)

Originally, we made this list in response to some discussions around the 
quality of add-on products. It was felt that having a mailing list where 
more experienced developers could help newer developers get their 
products up to speed would be useful. This was with open 
source/free-for-all products in mind, but we're not so elitist that we 
won't help people who are not able to release their code as open source, 
or where this simply doesn't make sense. If you become a better 
developer, chances are you'll help us with some open source stuff one 
day too.
