The most important question -- by far -- is:
QUESTION: Is that allowed?
If we write a script that copies the thousands of questions from
ask.sagemath to SX, will they see us running it and ban us? Just
because they don't do the important themselves (which would be crazy
to expect them to do), doesn't mean we couldn't easily technically do
it from a database dump.
