[on_and_off]

Indeed. I am on the watcher list of a project I use a lot and contribute to.

I don't know how the main maintainer can answer so many stupid questions in a polite way.

99% of the answers are either in the ample doc of the project or a google search away.

I am not even sure how to curb this.

Seems to me that this is an opportunity for someone who wants to contribute to a project but lacks the technical skills to do so.
