i'm not sure that even just helping someone when they get stuck is
appropriate when it's obvious it's a homework assignment. that's part
of the learning process -- troubleshooting and debugging.
in fact, from what i remember of the original posting, it seemed that
troubleshooting was the *primary* focus of that assignment, so lending
a hand to do just that seems out of place.
just my $0.02.

p.s. besides, it's not really a fedora issue, is it? it's more a
shell programming issue.
