I wonder if the community would find it appropriate if I ask a question like
"
Is this or that known? It would be interesting for this and that reason. For details see our blog "blah" where we ask for answers as well.
"
The main problem I have with posting it here is that I am less interested in just having an answer, but more in pointing people to the blog post.
If I follow http://blog.stackoverflow.com/2011/07/its-ok-to-ask-and-answer-your-own-questions/, then I feel like it's totally okay posting the problem and the blog post directing towards an answer. I will write a follow-up meta question about that...
Thanks, Christian
