Oh, geee. You think you're so unique that you were the first one to think of this and that you're the first one to ask for hand holding? It _HAS_ failed before. Many, many, many times. My todo list has been on the web for over 6 years. It has given us one or two developers, but mostly it has gotten me shitpiles of mails asking for holding hands. Probably around 20 people I spent hundereds of hours on, giving advice, explaining things, helping debug, holding hands. The total result of committed code: 0. Maybe, just maybe it made me slightly bitter. People say that they'll do things because it makes them feel good and like they are participating. But actually doing stuff is work, so that's not interesting. //art
