Right - I'd forgotten that. It pretty much says it all, except that the problem is likely to be most with those who wouldn't read or understand it even if they were presented with the URL. Maybe we need an opensolaris-help-clueless group, with access to the "real" opensolaris-help group only after two +1's on having asked a quality question. :-) That way, those who enjoy handholding can be paired up with those who expect it, leaving the rest for those of us for whom the question is more important than the questioner. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
