Excellent point. So what kinds of questions would be ideal for this theoretical Maemo Q&A page? I think it would basically be:

"How do I do X on Maemo device Y?"

Right? Nothing more? Well, people could, I suppose, ask more nebulous questions like

"When is Adobe Flash Player 10.1 coming to the N900?"

In that case, the top answer would presumably be the one with the most current & authoritative statement from Nokia (or, if none exists, the closest thing to that). The top answer should NOT, in theory, be the most popular flaming criticism of Nokia.

One challenge with a Q&A is that the knowledge base isn't static. For example, consider a question like "How do I install NITDroid on my N900?" The best answer would have changed dramatically over the past several months. The more vaguely worded the question, the harder it will be to tell if the answer is out of date. Although if the questions are dated, that will help. And if questions can be marked as outdated, that would also help.
