Right, but formal documentation is not the same as more informal
Q&A/support, and they have different levels of editing
accessibility/difficulty and quality expectations. I was just agreeing with
Janek that one of the benefits of these other ways of doing Q&A support is
how they can be edited and organized. But the mailing list is fine, and it
has done a great job of allowing a supportive community to thrive around
LilyPond.

That sounds like a nice improvement to me. I was just mentioning, for the
record, an alternative to the closed-source proprietary service of
StackExchange, in case it might be of interest to anyone, in this context or
another, now or later on.
Best,
