[wp-docs] FAQ

[Christian Balzer (TigerDE2)]

The difference, though, is that in newspapers, the author's comments are 
actually printed in the publisher's publication. He thus has some kind of 
responsibility. We do only supply the software. Kind of the printer 
supplying the paper. We don't have to talk to them about opinions. Just tell 
people we're only doing software, nothing else. If they want to approach the 
author of any blog, this is the wrong place.*

Anyway: There's a very easy way to check whether something is written 
clearly enough: Translate it into another European language using Babelfish 
or therelike and then back into English. If it's still easy to understand 
and well formulated (with one or two glitches) your job is done. If not, try 
again... ;o)

*) We might use something along the lines "Please understand that we at 
WordPress.org have no influence on any of the WordPress' powered blogs. We 
only deliver the software. Everything else on other people's blogs is beyond 
our influence."
