So I should add a note instead: "who can clarify this, please contact me at <...> for my questions"? ;-)

ask on the mailinglist....

or did your smiley mean, you intentionally did mis-understand?


- incomplete (falls under 2, unless it makes in misleading, then falls under 3)
Does not change by adding a note.
Again, if the person knows what is missing, then he can immediately add it. Even if after adding in might still be missing some more.

Please check how much I updated myself, *without* adding notes. The notes occur only in those places, where I could *not* find the correct description myself.

Again as written before by me: If you actually have meaningful content, why a note? And as you wrote above, if you had it, you did fix or improve the doc, rather than adding such notes.

And please also tell me *whom* to ask in all these remaining cases.
Guess how many answers I got in the past, when sending such questions to the mailing list :-(

Well I agree, not every question will be answered.
But if not, it means no one knows the answer. That also means, there is no one who will fix a "[what?]" note. And if no one is to fix it, there is no point in putting it there.

As I said. Trying to use them to force people will not work.

Spearing for myself:
- Where I can (have knowledge and time), I will help.
- And where that does not apply, you can be certain that such notes are the last think that will make me do anything. If they had really gone in, and decision was not to remove them without fix: Well be it.
