I guess I'd rather have them distribute them, even if they aren't that great,
mainly due to the fact that at least it's *something!* Have people tried to 
let them know of their error/mistakes? I don't know these individuals, but 
would they be open to criticism? Is bad code better than no code? I probably 
write lots of bad code, but hey, I can't help it... I'm still learning!

Maybe someone will come along who is as visible as these two, but writes
great code, but until then... what to do?
