This tends to get explained once a month or so, but there's a scale of
value of opinions.  It goes like this:

Idea Men->New Myth users->Experienced Myth Users->Bug Reporters->Good
Bug Reporters->Patch contributors->Good patch
contributors->Developers.

Where on a scale of 0 to 10, Idea men = 0, and Developer = 10.

Is it right for me to have that opinion.  Well... yes, actually.  I'm
somewhere on the higher end of the scale and had to do the work to get
there, so yeah, I think my opinion should matter more.  :)
