I've seen some people clearly state that a post has a cross post on another SE site (typically SO) and/or link each post to the other, but what are the community recommendations on this topic?
If I ask a question that may not be SharePoint specific, but relates to SharePoint development, should I:
- Ask on SO and tag it SharePoint
- Ask on SPSE
- Ask on both and cross reference the posts within each other
The reason I ask is I just posted a question on SO that is about Visual Studio, but relates to a SharePoint control. I asked myself, "Hmm, what if another SP developer has handled this in the past?" In order to get the best answer, I feel like cross posting would benefit the poster. However cross posting has downsides too, such as duplication of information (violating the SRP!), additional doling out of points, comment threads being segregated, etc.
Thoughts?
