Question

Is it ok to ask easily Google-able questions like "What is 'Feature Stapling'?" here?

I assumed the answer was yes, but a comment on one of my questions made doubt this. I'm still in the early stages of trying to learn Sharepoint and I was thinking of asking more 'easily Google-able' questions like "What is a 'Property Bag'?", "What is a 'Delegate Control'?"

Why? Because the content doesn't exist on this QA site. Because even though I've looked some of these up on Google, they haven't quite 'clicked' yet, and I find asking it here would help my understand the concepts. Because asking here allows answers to be peer-reviewed, giving some measure of correctness.

Answer 1

The short answer is Yes.

This site should be the SharePoint knowledge resource, with a definitive high-quality answer for every SharePoint question anyone may ever think of asking (within the boundaries of the FAQ).

Here are the related Meta.SO questions and answers:

Answer 2

I've found that I get significantly better responses if I include links to what I HAVE looked at, and explained why I found them lacking. For isntance:

"I've been looking at http://blahblah.website.blah, and while it's got some great info, it's a little more technical than I understand at this point, and assumes prior knowledge of 2007. I was JUST assigned to head up the Sharepoint team, and really need to understand how permissions are assigned from AD before I can start the isntall and start exploring the product."

will get better answers than

"How do sharepoint permissions assign from AD?"

It's the same question, and hopefully a similar answer, but the context will help people answer appropriately to what you've already tried.
