I see all these glorious lists of CAB files that are obviously labors of love but the names are cryptic and there is no description of what they do.
Is there a glossary somewhere or should I write one?

Feel free to make a Wiki of the cab files and their descriptions. More that help the better.

First off, I think its a nice idea what you have done, but in reality how many new-to-HTC-Kaiser users 'n00bs' will actually bother checking up and reading this. Its now gotten to the point that so many new comers come into the forum and ask the same questions over and over again. Is there no other way to do this. I had hoped that a "FrontPage" of sorts could be embedded literally into the main XDA-DEV website on each htc models index page. Like a wiki but one that MUST be read before new members entered the site. This way there would be NO escaping the basic knowledge factor.
The point being that one would have no choice but to be confronted with either yours or one of the other n00bs pages before they entered the main forum.
PS: Hasn't Alex and Skunky done this already via similar methods? Why didn't you use one of the already condenced ones and add on to it.
I hope you except my point of view as simply that and NOT a critisism as its not meant to be.
Cheers dude.

Gwens list is listed in the top, all I did was copy verbatum _Alex_'s sticky. I appreciate all suggestions. No offense taken.

Moderators: can we make the Kaiser Wiki a sticky?

Does it make sense to do this? I think it would really help, but I was wondering why it hasn't been done already. It seems a lot of people here don't even know it exists, lol. Maybe we can make this thread the sticky! Should probably include a message like "Please read before posting."
Kaiser Wiki
EDIT: a Wiki sticky! ha, hey that rhymes! alright, I'm a dork. I know.

Maybe because there is already a link at the top of the page for the Wiki.

That's true, but:
There's a lot of people who browse this site with a narrow field of vision
Many of these people end up asking questions for which answers already exist online
That link does not stand out to the typical new user, it gets lost in the sea of links at the top of the page
The link itself only goes to the general Wiki page, not directly to the Kaiser's
The aforementioned users, I believe, may typically brush off that page as "too confusing" or "useless" since it doesn't take them directly to information about their phone
I think a sticky may help reduce the number of repeated posts, since it would place the Wiki in their field of vision. I don't know, maybe I think too lowly of these users? I just think that with all the top notch work that's gone into the Kaiser Wiki, it's a shame that resource isn't exploited or advertised more than it is now.
But maybe I'm still missing something?

People don't read the stickies either. Some people just don't care and don't read anything. They just post their question without doing any reading or searching, even for the simple questions that have been asked over and over. Yes, it's frustrating. You can't help people like that.
EDIT: Besides, there is already a sticky thread for SEARCHING this site (including the Wiki), and yet, people fly right past that without reading.

done (edited the Google post)

Thank you!

I wanted to add a link to the wiki to my signature but wasn't sure how to get the get a different title for the link. I dug around a bit on the forum help but didn't see how to embed a link in your sig. If someone posts the method, I encourage others to add it to their sig as well. Communication is often more effective when it is delivered more then once, and from more than one source. Plus, I don't think new members (or at least most of them) mean to ask repeated questions but are in general are not yet familiar with forum etiquette.

I think that's a great idea. Although, I'm not sure I'm understanding your question. Are you looking to change this:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
to this:
Kaiser Wiki
?

Hi, when you add a link to kaiser wiki in your signature you will get this:
[ URL="http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser"]http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser[/URL ]
just change to
[ URL="http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser"]Kaiser Wiki[/URL ]
Is this what you asked for? (Result see in my signature)
Seasons greatings,
Hans Olo

Maybe we should encourage more users to put a link to the Wiki in their signatures!

mchapman007, why create another thread? Your thread is pretty redundant also.

Correct, title of thread said it all. "I just posted another redundant thread"
