Ask PG: Necessary to be a technical founder to be accepted in YC?

I have some knowledge related to programming, although not enough to actually build an app. It is, however, sufficient for communicating what I need to developers. I am also familiar with various web technologies, workflows, and stacks.

If I got a developer (non-founder) to build an app based off of my idea would I still be considered for admission to YC? Assume the app is live (in beta) with some traction.
