user1848: I looked at the poll for which upcoming series we could ask questions about.
This left me with a question about Gatchaman Crowds - will it take place in the same universe as the original Gatchaman series? Googling did not answer it, and I think this will not be answerable until the series starts. But by then, it will be answerable.
I looked at this question on meta, but I think the examples there are mostly questions that can only be answered with speculation. The question I have should be answerable with facts, if not now, then by July.
So, would it be OK to post it? Or should I wait until the series starts?

user27: Yes!
It's perfectly fine asking question that you know that it's likely to have a factual answer in the near future.
Meaning, asking about something that's going to happen in the future (but in the future will have a good answer), is OK.
Go ahead and ask your question, don't be discouraged if you don't get any answers at first (because... you know.. there aren't any).
