I may not understand your question. I see nothing wrong with this, since
this is how people learn. If you feel there is too much bandwidth
devoted to this, then perhaps CCC could actually show some advantage
over Usenet, since a FAQ posted here under a link would not "roll off"
and need to be reposted every week. Then the simplest answers could be
answered, and people when they joined could be requested to read the
FAQ, which could be updated when new questions pop up. Of course,
getting someone to write the FAQ would be a big request, since a good
one would take some time.
