I almost agree.  This is overblown and less than helpful.  But even the FAQ 
does point people interested in the popular libraries to the libraries' 
sites.  It's clear that for the most part questions about how to use these 
libraries are not well-received on comp.lang.javascript.  A short sentence 
that pointed that out would have been fine.  This plaintive cry is too much.
