1) Never decompile Microsoft binaries to see how they work. You cannot contribute if you've done this.

2) Create NUnit tests for everything that you can when contributing new code. All methods should be tested where possible. A seperate post will be written to explain how best to do that.

3) If someone says no, then no means no. They should give reasons why code isn't being accepted, if they don't, annoy them until they do. If reasons are given as to why code isn't being accepted, then the code will only be accepted once the relevant changes are made. Complaining about it won't help.

4) Have fun.
