No entailment here ... that's like saying you need to master C++ to reconceptualize bug tracking; it just ain't so. Those requirements are excessive.

Now, if you want to go off track real quick, set yourself the goal of learning XML, and XPCOM, and all of that. (Of course I'm not depreciating an understanding of how the system works ... for that matter, get a good sense of DOM while you're at it.) The best project manager I worked with had precious little appreciation for the finer points of how embedded processors worked with phased-array switching, and his intelligent triage paid off in spades. hfx_ben p.s. ain't nuthin' wrong with lending a hand on triage!
