Re: [Demexp-dev] Link for a question?

[Félix]

David,

I think that allowing a link on the question itself
could be more confusing than useful e.g.: someone
submits a question "Is demexp useful?" and adds a link
to a page where he says "I mean the demexp project not the
demexp software" . Then what question do you answer?

Also someone who submits a question may put a link that
is not partial, and this would be unfair.

I think that in 99% of the time someone who submits a question
also has a candidate answer to propose, so she/he will put the
link together with the candidate answer.

Cheers,

 Felix
