However, how hard would it be to solicit for people to
write that kind of material?
I thought I just did, if somewhat indirectly.
And how much time answering the same
questions in mail and news could be saved by documenting this stuff in
the first place?
Very little, unfortunately.
You say you try to answer all questions submitted to mailing lists, and
that you try to post crucial bug fixes to mailing lists. What lists
are these?
xpert/comp.windows.x
As far as distributing bug fixes goes, if there was simply an address
(a mailing list, whatever) where I could subscribe so that whenever a
new fix has been placed on the ftp server I would get a notice....
