I disagree. Responding encourages future attempts and will build like a
snowball. Politely explaining the purpose of the list and the nature of
their offtopic post is much etter longterm IMO. I have issues everyday
that i would appreciate feedback from the experience developers/users on
this list but recognize that time is valuable and that if they had time
to spare to help my problem they'll read the appropriate list. The
polite negative responses serve as a reminder to the silent operatives
out there (like me) that this isnt the place to ask even though the
people here do know the answer.
However the original posters question was ontopic IMO and i have run
into the unavailability kernel issue myself a number of times.
