This concept of everyone has to know about all the fedora lists and

them and never forward information from one list to another is just,
IMHO, silly. Not to mention that no matter what FAQ are posted every
month and no matter what *rules* and *regulations* are proclaimed there
will always be new users that won't/haven't read them yet...
Agreed up to here.
or will
think some of them silly and ignore them....
In which case they should be called on it. Thinking a guideline (there
are few if any "rules" here and no "regulations" I know of) is silly
is
a reason to propose an alternative, not simply to ignore it.
Some folks here act as if
anarchy is breaking out and the whole world order is collapsing when
someone top posts....
Top-posting, posting in HTML, quoting entire digests (and not editing
quotes, which I admit most of us are guilty of from time to time) are
real impediments. It's reasonable to draw attention to the guidelines
when the poster clearly hasn't noticed them or has decided they don't
apply to him.
