It is not a sensible idea to provide offlist support for Wookie. It's not 
sustainable (unless someones paying for it of course) and limits the amount of 
help available to the user. 

It's especially not a good idea to cc this list on such support exchanges. 
Firstly we only see one part of the conversation since emails from 
non-subscribers are bounced. Secondly portions of a private conversation are 
being cc'd to a public list. 

I have a standard text which I send to people asking for support from me as an 
individual. It basically says mail your query to the public list where I and 
others can address it and others with the similar issues can learn from the 
answers. 

I strongly suggest that people do the same here, we need to build a self 
sustaining community which means everyone helping one another, not one or two 
individuals carrying the whole burden. 

In my experience people not willing to post to a public list are not likely to 
become a contributor anyway so nothing is lost from this action.
