I am not suggesting stopping these people from posting but taking them to a
page where they get a very strong warning aboiu the content and get told
that Questions are not the place and that we will sit them in front of a
stereo and make them listen to me sing for hours on end (somthing else I
have no tallent at) if they dare post a question to the errata..

I was thinking about doing somthing like this.. sorta a sumary of whats been
added in the last week.. whats section has been cleaned (by looking at
number of posts from each section) etc... I asked rasmus for a db dump but
it never came so I suppose it could be done via the emails..
