I strongly disagree. If someone want to work on Sage, then we should provide advice but by no means tell them what to do. It's a plus for the Sage community to get people involved, even if at first they work on something of interest to them that others might consider a "waste of resources." I think it's a shame that the tone on the sage-devel list is not as welcoming as it used to be, and I think we suffer a loss of developers because of it.
