Over the last couple of weeks, there have been approximately 16 new questions per day. At the same time, the gnu-emacs mailing lists form the strongest Emacs community that I'm aware of. I'd like to try and build some bridges between the these two communities. One way of doing that would be to forward here (to help-gnu-emacs) a list of new questions posted on Emacs.SE. On average, the quality of answers at the site has been very nice, but things can always be improved. Not only that, but I've also learned a lot just by reading some of the posts there, so I'm sure it would also be of interest to the mailing list. I certainly don't want to spam this list, so the idea would be to have a daily email listing new questions. A second option would be an email every 3 hours (8 emails a day), but I think that would be too much. *Is this something people would be happy with?* Cheers to all, Artur Malabarba ------------------------------ PS 1: For now, there's no way to turn email replies into actual answers there. But if any interesting discussion lights up here anyone with an account could turn it into an answer there. PS 2: For those not familiar with the SE network, the site is heavily focused on Q&A. There is a place for discussion (a sub-site called the meta), but the main site itself is strongly focused on objective questions. It also has some very good tools to prevent duplicate questions, and to help maintain discoverability of old questions.
