I don't really view this list as a place like
XSL-List, where you can get specific advice on solving a problem, and I don't
really disagree with the "look it up" argument, but I'm not sure the "time"
argument quite washes. I count one poster with 385 posts since mid January. That
is some serious time. I don't think I've written 385 emails since mid
January to the entire world, much less one list.

of the active participants on XML-Dev have multiple pressures on their time. I
guess I read/skim 5% of the email I receive (after spam is removed). So, as a
matter of practicality, I read only topics that interest me or otherwise take
my eye.
A proportion of questions, if answered more than superficially,
would require many minutes to adequately draft a reply. Minutes that I (and
presumably others) typically don't have spare. In reality, of course, the
answers to many questions exist in books, online articles etc. Shouldn't the
questioner take time to search for those?
