I find this assertion disturbing.  Scheme is odd, C as implemented in 
GnuCash is odd.  Are the applicants not allowed to normalise interfaces, 
for example?

Remote devices aren't my interest, interfaces I am interested in.

I'm feeling mildly pissed off because some people clearly want to code 
and are being put down.  I don't say the monster mods are bullies as 
such but I do think ideas should be allowed without reversion to the put 
down of "make a patch", etc :(
