If a question keeps coming up it should go to FAQ :-)

Is that really a problem? I mean, if people get the answer they need
does it really matter how they got it? Nothing wrong with having good
docs /and/ an active community.

P.S. If a question keeps coming up, maybe it should be moved to
UserVoice rather than the documentation... :)

Krzysztof, the problem with SO is that it tends to not upvote /
accept answers that are not on SO.
So however great your article on stw.castleproject.org
<http://stw.castleproject.org> will be, if someone comes along
giving an adequate answer to the SO question inside SO it tends to
get voted up and accepted instead of leaving the link.
Sure we could just go ahead and copy our docs to the SO questions
though..

Also, to everyone:
When taking the time to answer a question, perhaps it would be
better to utilize the time for improving the docs and linking
to there?
I want to remind everybody we have a wiki at
http://stw.castleproject.org/ where the docs will live, and
one that hopefully will replace
using.* site and our anakia-based docs.
It has twofold effect - our docs get improved, people get the
message "Castle has good docs, look for answers there", plus
we get links
from SO to our website which I think is not bad from SEO
standpoint.

And my signature has a "this forum is deprecated", so every

Henry and Hamilton, can we please please please get it
closed?
Mauricio,
Don't take this the wrong way but, I noticed you keep on
answering
questions there, that may be the reason why people keep
on posting
over there.
Cheers
John
