- My immediate reaction would be that yes, it can definitely fit in the general Q&A category. And there is no rule against self-answers to questions.
However, please do take a bit of care with how the respective posts are written. **Mainly, the *question* needs to be self-contained, and it should allow for *others* to also post answers.** You should not assume *a priori* knowledge of the answer you have in mind within the question.- It's probably best to pose the question as a generally applicable problem, sufficiently specific that someone without any additional knowledge of the problem but with knowledge of the solution space would be able to propose a solution; and then in an answer suggest that (for example) PAM can be used to solve that problem, and explain how.
