I copied this grading scale mechanism from
a failed
Google interview ;-)
One problem with it is that
I am always very hesitant to put
a 5 on anything, who can not look at the documentation?
It is also hard to scope things right. Who can claim to be
a C++ or
Linux kernel expert, even if you wrote
a book about it, since those are such humongous topics?
As a result,
I haven'
t updated this in
a while, and things may be out of date.
If your project does something that
interests me,
I can what it takes to contribute. Tell me what
I must know, how long
I have to learn it, and
I'll call you back when
I've mastered it.
