I completely agree; If you want to attract competent people from the
business world, one thing you have to do is respect their time by helping
them find information, especially about things they don't know exist. All
that's needed are pointers, but the pointers need to be to solid
documents/resources, not just the top of a heap - if you'll forgive the
pun.
