Summary of Functionality
What the module does:

- Directly ('node/add/question')
- After searching for similar questions ('questions/start_ask')
- Users can review questions
- All questions: 'questions/all'
- Unanswered questions: 'questions/unanswered'
- Search for questions: 'questions/search'
- When viewing lists of questions, users can sort by title, post date, and number of answers
- Users can post answers to questions
- When displaying a question, the system shows the answers to that question.
The displays are based on standard CCK node displays and Views, so can be themed in the typical ways.
For more detail and configuration options, see the file "answers.readme.txt" in the module.
