We do already exclude contributors for such "dubious reasons"
Well you accuse other of not being able to "read a wiki ..." so please
read what I wrote.
"excluding *users* for such dubious reasons ." ... Users are not
necessarily contributers.
as requiring
them to be able to read a wiki, subscribe to a mailing list, make a FAS
account... a BIOS change is equally difficult (or equally easy) as any of
those. Is not rocket science.
You missed the point.
