Now here I'm sitting and thinking if you meant "hacker" (like many decent
folks working hard to make stupid computers do smart things) or "cracker"
(like those puny little folks having nothing better to do than destroy
homepages of Canadian hockey clubs). If the first, you can, by some
margin, if the second - if he continues to commit good patches, we don't
care what he's doing on his backyard on the moonless nights, right? :)
If one commits good patches, he's in, if one commits bad ones, they and
maybe he (if he's too arrogant on that) are out.
