I was already wondering if I need to rephrase the question :-)

Even if you *are* afraid of a bit C hacking (or maybe afraid of me getting 
afraid of your hacking capabilities ;)) there are quite some tasks not 
requiring developers skills at all:

  - updating the wiki, so some of the info in the NEWS [0] file gets
    more accessible to Dia users
  - going through open bugs [1] an trying to reproduce stuff which
    currently has not that information
  - going through Dia enhancement request [2] and match them with
    the ChangeLog [3]. (I've got the impression there is a lot of stuff
    already adressed but not properly reflected in the bug-tracking
  - improve/update documentation
  - and last but not least: *read* the information provided and explain
    it to people who do not ;)

Thanks in advance for all you help,
        Hans
