I think the reason that homework got brought up in general was as the
only time it might be considered fair/reasonable to be "rude" in
responding to the questions that come from the uninitiate.
Given that there was no specific instance illustrating a condescending
or rude reply in the original post, its kind of natural for the thread
to drift. I think we all agree that Ada is best served by having her
user community be as friendly and helpful to the newbies as possible.
Requests by newbies that we do their homework for them being in my mind
at least, the only occasion for violating that rule.
