[wp-hackers] Wordpress and Web Standards

[petit at petitpub.com]

I'm fairly new to the wp-hackers and I'm not involved with the development of
WordPress, but I'm a bit curious about the right out dismissal of 
someon coming
to the list, with a suggestion that he wants to participate. Why not 
welcome him
and ask for his ideas?
He may be looking for back links, but it's not at all certain.
If he is, it's not very efficient.

IMHO, of course :)
