Michael, Thanks a bunch for your work on this. Just the other day, I was wondering whether you get paid for this, and thought, "Well, of course he's paid. It's way too much work to do unpaid." Now that I know the truth, I don't know what to say...hats off. Thank you so much for a resource which has helped me immeasurably.
Also, I didn't see the particular message that broke the camel's back, but it occurred to me that it might have been my message to Kris Pilles this morning: > Kris, > > Just for future reference: you can also take a look at the archives, a link > to which should appear at the bottom of just about every message on the > list. Since one can often find multiple discussion threads on a topic, I've > found these archives to be a tremendous resource. > > Hope this is helpful, > Matthieu I really hope this didn't come across as "Geez, check the archive already". On the contrary, I wrote it in earnest, especially since Kris' message stated a need for the answer due to losing mail. I thought Kris might not know about the archives which (whether or not they are done) truly are a fantastic resource. I may be worrying for nothing, but just in case: If my message came across as nasty or anything, I sincerely apologize to Kris and the list for that unintended result.

I hate doing so but sometimes its needed. If someone asks a question on the list and another person thinks it to simple, that other person has 3 choices; either answer it, point the questioner to the place where the answer is or not post at all. People should not be afraid to post their questions because they feel that someone will flame them or their question will be silly or simple. This is a list for all. If the behavior of flaming simple, common or any other question continues, I'm going to be forced to assign homework to the flamer. "If your so good at this that you can bash someone else for asking the question, then you have to write up a short FAQ to answer the question". I think that if enough of these FAQs are written then maybe it'll cut down on what some feel are easy or silly questions. I can't do this alone until someone decides to pay me for hosting the lists and community work. I barely have enough time as is.
