So long as the asnwers themselves aren't outdated? 07:14:38 <diablo_rojo> That way the info we want is more discoverable? 07:14:42 <tonyb> okay 07:14:43 <diablo_rojo> And in more places? 07:15:10 <gmann> true, if people find old question related to them at least they can find answer too 07:15:14 <diablo_rojo> I dunno, just my thoughts, other people can disagree :) 07:15:15 <tonyb> I wrote a really long answer to a devstack question but then dropepd it because it was about liberty 07:15:42 <diablo_rojo> Ha ha ha 07:15:52 <diablo_rojo> Things like that I think you can...skip 07:16:11 <diablo_rojo> Or reply and say where they can ask synchronously if they have current questions 07:16:11 <gmann> tonyb: may be till all supported stable branch related and foe other we can update the stable support thing . 07:16:37 <mattoliverau> that answer could go in the devstack part of the contributor guide (if it is usaul for everyone that is). 07:17:03 <diablo_rojo> I wonder who the people are that actually use ask.o.o...I would have just gone to a ML or IRC. 07:17:58 <tonyb> Yeah even when I was new I went to thew ML or IRC 07:18:41 <mattoliverau> millennials :P 07:19:08 <diablo_rojo> mattoliverau, what year were you born? I feel like you fall into the millenial time span 07:19:09 <gmann> but many new people does not know ML or IRC things. I feel they just search google "openstack question " and ask.o.o is second in search 07:19:20 <diablo_rojo> I suppose. 07:19:57 <diablo_rojo> I just think direct engagement with the community would be better, but maybe I am weird ;) 07:20:22 <mattoliverau> diablo_rojo: maybe I do.. not saying I'm not to blame :P 07:20:40 * mattoliverau needs to check the year bracket 07:21:31 <diablo_rojo> mattoliverau, post 1980 would make you a millennial ;) 07:21:49 <diablo_rojo> Anywho, anything else on this topic? 07:21:55 <mattoliverau> damn..
