"VB is often the first language of the clueless". ;-)
Funny, but a bit harsh, I think. I know some good VB programmers.
Also, I agree with tk's post - I think that it's likely that good programmers want to get into open source, rather than that getting into open source will make you a good programmer.
Why? Because you are likely to be a good programmer if you are an enthusiast. And who gets into open source? Enthusiasts, that's who!
