There are some questions that come up repeatedly on this ml. If you've subscribed for more than a few weeks and read most emails, you've already seen what I'm talking about. My personal pet peeve is the compiler target/source issue. In many of these common cases, the issue has been documented. Usually in the FAQ and in the Wiki and in the plugin docs too. Also it is documented well in Google and in the ml archive. And yet people still ask this question every 5-10 days and sometimes more often. How can you help people who ask this question (and others like it)? I agree that _more_ documentation is not necessarily the magic bullet that many believe it is.
