I wasn't the one with the critical comment. I was just saying that just
because you "can't do better" doesn't mean you can't comment. Example: I
can't make a skin for Mozilla but I do have LOTS of ideas and comments on
the current ones. If I write a long post about how to improve a skin or
even if I take the tone of "hey, this sucks.. this should be fixed!", it
shouldn't trigger "shut up or make a better one yourself" comments. It 
should be received as any feedback from anyone - participating in working
on the project or not. Participation is not what makes a comment valid or
not.
