About asking questions

> A lot of people are asking question in the Seaside mailing-list and I
> think this is really a good thing that should be encouraged.

> There are some things however I would like to point out to make the
> whole process as efficient as possible, for people asking and
> answering questions.
>
> 1. Always state the version of Seaside/Scriptaculous you are using.
> Also state the platform (Squeak, VisualWorks, ...) you are on.
>
> 2. Provide a minimal file-out with your mail that shows your problem.
> It is really annoying and time-cosumung to have to copy and past code
> into Squeak, register the application, add missing code to make it
> work, etc. So the requirement is: a file-out that is minimal, that
> shows the problem and that registers itself as application.
>
> 3. Don't write private mails to Seaside developers, they all have
> other things to do as well. Write to the mailing-list, unless you have
> a consulting contract.
>
> In general this article is a really nice reference on how to ask
> questions in a mailing-list:
