I was trying to encourage questions on SO a few years back. I did mergExt 
support there for that reason. SO is great for building a repository of 
knowledge, however, it is downright hostile if you don’t ask the question in 
the right way. One solution for the community is if people that have an 
interesting problem that is then discussed and resolved here or on the forums 
could then pose the question on SO and answer it themselves with the correct 
answer. That way the knowledge is better preserved.

Cheers
