This is indisputably possible.

But what I don't understand is the, excuse me, low willingness to help. I 
understand that you do not always want to repeat things, but sometimes the 
"RTFM" is unfortunately too little help, even for people willing to learn.

I have made it clear here what I need for my daily voluntary work and it should 
actually be understood that I am concerned that information can be lost (or 
become less accessible).
Also, I have named what I do for about 15 years daily volunteer to make it 
clear what I myself contribute to the project.

Is it wrong if I expect in a community, actually like-minded people, to help me 
to understand what I need to understand, especially if others should notice 
that my questions or comments go in the wrong direction?

Currently, for example, I found Dave's email to be the most helpful of the 
entire thread, because I realize that Dave realizes I need help and he is 
trying to give me the appropriate help.



greetings,
Jörg
