And in fact, we're so forgiving that when people mention that a
question could be easily answered by the FAQ etc., or is not really a
OSX related TeX question, we sometimes get scolded for being
unfriendly...
It's a very fine balance, though, because I would definitely not want
this list to turn into one where some large proportion of questions
get answered with "that's in the FAQ/wiki". Also, sometimes it's no
more effort to answer the question than to point someone to the FAQ/
wiki.
