That's why I wrote it as a question. I'm not familiar enough with the list to know for sure. >> Anybody anything else to add?

We need to make sure people know the process involved. A shortcut could also be to handpick some bugs before hand and start the day on those problems. Then people can dive in and pick bugs they want to fix themselves? Other project days would be cool too. It's a great way to learn about a project. I suggested Python as a neutral starting point.
