Dec 15, 2011 at 8:33 comment added Tom Brossman Allowing this could go a long way in attracting new Ubuntu users to this forum. If you have a class of 50 or so students all Googling for an answer, and clicking a link to the answer on Ask Ubuntu, you'd pick up quite a few new users. I think this would be a good thing. If the questions are being worded by professors, they are probably going to be decent quality.
Dec 15, 2011 at 8:10 comment added Stefano Palazzo Mod +1. The problem SO have with homework questions is that they're often poor questions, very narrowly scoped and not useful for anybody else. I don't think it'll be a big problem here, as the example shows. I suppose, if I close a homework question it will be for the usual reasons. It being homework is pretty irrelevant.
