That's a good example of exactly the sort of thing I'm talking about. 
Joel responded with "have you checked the pysvn mailing list" and gave a 
URL to that list. That is a good, helpful response, given that we can't 
be expected to know everything about every arbitrary package that might 
use Python.

And even this got a response suggesting the poster look for an nginx 
mailing list, which while less helpful than it could have been, was still 
a concrete, helpful response: not "RTFM", or "just google it", but 
"that's a problem with nginx, you need an nginx forum, not a Python one".
