Cognitive overload? From IRC and mailing lists? It makes me doubt whether you'd be able to contribute anything, anyway.
WOW YOU ARE SUCH A NICE PERSON
He's not wrong though. If IRC and mailing lists fall into the too-hard basket, id hate to think of where GNU-style C code falls. Bottom of the too-hard cliff?
Yes they are wrong. A contribution may consist of "merely" a bug report. Even just asking questions may indicate that the UX or documentation is lacking.
