If I was Doepfer, I would not do that.
The story would go that way: Every "idiot" will continue beeing an
idiot. He will do things I never thought he could do. He would crash his
pcbs and solder his components to death, the idiot will blame me that
his diy-project failed, and he wont get it fixed anyway as much as I
will help him (while the time, I should work on developping moduls) - he
simply still is an idiot. The result will be, that the idiot will be
very unsatisfied and he will blame his mistake to me - not to his own.
And of course he will tell this to the world.
So to my opinion the only way the word "idiot-proof" should be
understood is, that a DIY-page is proven, that idiots understand, that
they should keep their hands off.
Ok, this is described in extreme words. In reality I should say: There
are a lot of well described diy-project out there (commercial and
non-commercial). Start with them, learn with them, and the time will
come soon, you will be able to work with the Doepfer DIY-page.
