Carel

This is not obligatory, this is "obligatory" it means "If you have something interesting to post weekly, please do." and a "Try to post something interesting weekly."

For example i have investigated 2 days about how to read and write document with java from the OS, and I did it succesffully, then I can post it. This could be usefull to someone.
Or you can save to use it later. because frequenly when you need this kind of things you don't have too much time to read. Even more interesting is the fact, that someone, could read it and say you "you could do this better."

Or maybe you did a laboratory to test improvement in bitmap indexes, then you can share that.
That kind of laboratories takes long time and are very useful, when you are thinking to implement new features.
For example an example about the use of queues, and a sucessfull implementation could be interesting, personally I tried to use them but I didn't have enought time, neither found a good reason to do it, but maybe some one did, he post it as a quote.

I tell you Carel, why don't try, if this is only crap, then we go back and say "prohibited the use of weekly quotes" :), what do you think.

Otherwise not.

Force to do a weekly post, beacuse you have to do it, is insane and senseless .
And I agree this will fill the
