As a newcomer - lurker 'til now - I have hesitated from posting exactly
because of the general issue Jonathan brings up here. Not only do I feel
the need to have read both RMP books (which I have - several times) but
know the FAQs AND have read the archives - because as Jonathan says, "I
know it takes some time for newcomers to realize that they usually aren't
the first ones bringing up particular points, and they do deserve a chance
to make their point in their own words..."
Perhaps this raises a new protocol possibility. When raising a topic, some
changing responsibility of oldtimers might be to post relevant archives to
read before engaging in the discussion.
This issue is "a classic" - what might some MOQ solutions be?
