One of the best ways to get questions answered is to ask them to other users. This is what IRC (internet relay chat) is about. While participating you can ask and at the same time you are encouraged to answer other users' questions when you are able to. To join a KDE chat,

point your browser to http://webchat.freenode.net
decide for a nickname for yourself and enter it
as channel, enter #kde
enter the text that is shown graphically (it is a captcha to keep away spammers)
click on Connect
