Apr 12, 2015 at 17:55 comment added Pacerier @Olli, I prefer to post a comment, then someone else can take it from there. The alternative would be to post a link-only answer (not ideal), or don't post at all, potentially having the OP miss a good answer.
Feb 25, 2014 at 10:30 comment added Olli What if you know that the software X fits all or almost all the requirements, but you don't have time/interest to write a complete answer? We have seen this already, and people defend it with "well, it's better to answer with only link than not at all". Should we just delete that suggestion, or does it serve everyone better as a comment?
