[Mageia-discuss] Mailist etiquette -- gentle reminder

[Marc Paré]

There should be a recurring reminder of the mailist and Gmane list 
rules. There are many who are new to mailists and have never had the 
experience in group mailist etiquette. Some people find it 
annoying/frustrating when people top-post, quote whole passages etc. But 
we should be happy that there is so much participation. It just means 
that we need to every now and then send out a gentle reminder of the 
rules. I think that the "Mailist etiquette -- gentle reminder" should be 
posted every now and then by the Mageia ML maintainer just to add a 
little formality to the message.

Mailist etiquette:

- English language only please on the mailist
- no top posting please
- when answering, please quote the relevant sentences that is being replied
- please do not break the threads. Do a proper "Reply" from your email 
agent and your email will be "nested" with the right discussion thread.
- please do not hijack threads by "Replying" and then changing the 
"Subject" line of the mail

The exchange of ideas makes us all grow. Mageia, the magic continues.
