Please, don't shy away from answering questions if you think you have an answer. You've already proven yourself an asset to the community, and new users will benefit greatly from your help.

If you're worried about giving an incorrect answer, please try to not be concerned about that. Everyone who participates here has accidentally, and with the best of intentions, given some bogus information one point or another. When that happens, someone else usually catches it quickly and helps steer the thread back on track. In my experience, this generally happens without any belittling of the person who made the mistake. Worst case is usually some friendly ribbing.

As a general note, not directed specifically at everyone's favorite stuffed bear, I hope everyone here can work past the habit of thinking "They really need to fix..." and begin thinking how to help make that needed change happen. As soon as you begin using any part of maemo.org, congratulations, you've become part of the community. Please don't hesitate to beat a wiki page into shape, tag threads, rate downloads, file bugs, brainstorm, or be the start of a Newbie Helpers Organization. Contribute whatever skills and time you have available, and we'll all benefit. Thanks.
