	Sorry.... I disagree... This has been an ongoing problem. -newbies
was created with the cavet that ALL technical questions be asked in
-questions. There are multiple reasons for this, but the main reason is
that -newbies is just that. If you have a buisness dependant on your
system and get flawed information from -newbies accidently, it could make
things worse. 
	-Newbies is for helping the newbie know where to get information,
not what the actual information is. In my opinion this mailing list has
become a hinderance to the FreeBSD Project... nothing -newbie related gets
discussed here, including by myself.
