not everybody ( new people ) is currently in the mailing list
and usually, questions are answered in previous emails
and FAQs and websites etc..etc..
- mailing lists should be searchable to be useful

people will come and go .... ongoing change of scene .. and people..
- time constraints, $$$ constraints, technology contraints,
family and vacations always make for project management fun
- i doubt we'd get barraged by incoming queries and "hey can you do this"

the code themself
have fun
