I myself running a #gentoo-cn, a gentoo-china google group. Also I am a moderator of two gentoo forums, unfortunately one of them is temporarily down (linuxsir.org). Many times, I have exactly the same feeling. However, I never call a new comer an idiot however stupid his question is, thanks to the #paludis people. Coz I know how much that hurts, both to him and to my project. Zhang Le
