The thread starter did not describe himself as a "beginner," just a
non-programmer.  Since he was referring to old content on the web site,
perhaps I'd erroneously assumed he was an experienced user.

There are some people who don't speak C who've contributed excellent
material.  For example, Michael Lucas self-describes himself as a
non-C-programmer in his talks, yet Absolute OpenBSD is a great resources
for users.  I was not advocating the "here is a spellbook of magical
incantations you can type into your terminal" style of website that is
popular in other communities nor that the blind lead the blind :-)

I'm not sure how I formed the opinion openbsdsupport.org was blessed
(probably someone's forum post somewhere) so thanks for the correction.
