Many of the questions are re-occurring. May I suggest looking at an instance of stackoverflow.com (we implemented that as help.openstreetmap.org) which helps to categorize questions, rate questions and answers and have the best answers easily be findable? Also it does not require someone to sign up for a mailing list. Thanks for considering.
