I agree. A mailing list like this should not fall to the lowest common denominator. And I
would like to add that while this community seems to be an exception, far too often
someone wastes bandwidth and bytes by telling the person with a question to RTFM. I just
finished a rather complicated project which took me days to resolve and several times
when I asked questions there was always some wise crack at hand who would make the commen
that "if you just RTFM" everything would be fine. In this case the manuals were
lacking and most of the data was obselete or irrelavent to the project I was
conducting....kind of like FreeBSD documentation.
That is unfortunately the case more often then not. There are use cases
out there, but a lot of times the description of actually config
variables is obscure.
I'm hoping to try and fix that, but its on a todo list. I'll post
something when I have it up and running.
