The difference is that its every question.  In addition to SO, would we
also look at SF for the infrastructure/deployment side? What about having
questions on security.stackexchange since this is a very security oriented
project?

To be honest, my dislike for it is not the "let's use stackoverflow" its
the "let's drop the mailing lists" part.

Anyways, I just posted a question on SO.  I'll look to see if it gets
answered ;-)
