It also depends on the TYPES of questions that get asked, and the rate of "yes there is a solution" to "no sorry" answers.
For web2py, I would say 99% of the questions that get asked, get answered with a "yes you can, here is how". There are other projects out there, that can't claim such a high rate for questions answered. Times and time again I have been told by even maintainers of some projects "NO there is no way to do that, and never will be, tough luck". All while the question was legitimate, and should be possible with this said project. -Thadeus On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 4:06 PM, Richard <richar...@gmail.com> wrote: > > LOTS of questions, bug reports, and need for help in using is not a > > good sign.
