That was not the primary purpose I gave. I gave this rationale:

- make it easier to find information from the past for new users
- to consolidate around key frameworks that has the potential to 
become «complete»

But it probably should be listed under the «learn» header to 
lower the threshold for asking questions.

You can also find other reasons:
- lower the pressure on creators of frameworks by having users 
help each other
- increase the reasons for participating in forums
- create a sense of belonging to a sub-community (e.g. the 
Turkish forums).
- channel more users in, by having direct links from framework 
websites
