I fully agree and I don't mean RTFM literally. "The answer is supposed to be documented here (\url)..." is a very acceptable form of it...one can be brisk without being rude and I'm always grateful when someone points me in the direction of the right "manual" - if it's currently beyond my ken and I need to read something else first then that's my problem. I'm not going to waste your time by expecting you to read it for me and give quick answers to deep questions. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Maintaining-the-community-tf4071917.html#a11577502 Sent from the Haskell - Haskell-Cafe mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
