Meetings where one person is outside and the rest in the same room is just useless for the person that is not in the room. As soon as the "in-room people" start talking to each other (which happens quite naturally very often), the lone guy just does not understand what is going on.

The knowledgeable co-workers will need to have the discipline to either fix the problem (on the machines *and* in Rock) or redirect them to rock-users instead of answering questions. What one has to stress there is that it is a much better solution even for them, because "the knowledgeable co-worker" is not always around while there is often someone reading rock-users.
