Ross, I've been doing this for >10 years, far longer than you. And I have coordinated more online and open source communities, too, I'd guess.
I do have canned responses, but these no longer apply, given the new situation. As it happens, the number of outlier requests has dropped precipitously over the last two months, as AOO builds steam. I receive, now, very few, and those I do, I quickly route to this proper project. Sorry if I bristled. I accept, of course, advice all the time; even from my mother in law, always from my spouse, and even from kind strangers :-).
