Re: We need your help!
Hai, I don't usually reply to the list if I don't have anything helpful to say. But coming across this post, I found it to be a little bit offensive for you to response that way especially when you're looking for help. I might be wrong or misinterpreted your response due to the language barrier between us though.

Re: We need your help!
Ok folks! there seems to be some confusion, tone and un pleasantries going on here. Paul mailed the list asking for some help with regards to the Classbot Nathan Handler is working on to help loco teams. The reason sometimes things are sent to this list as there are more people on here who can help, either by helping out themselves, or passing it onto their teams and even encouraging others to take part in translations. Yes I know we have a translations mailing list, but sometimes it's also nice to get new people involved and they perhaps may not hear of these things. With regards to replying to daily digests, it's sometimes hard to read which thread it belongs to, I've seen on other mailing lists where they quote the exact part they are referring to, that might be an idea. It's also very hard to judge tone over email/irc/forums, there is also a large community here where English is not their first lanuage and I'm not sure it translates the way in which it is intended. Please try to remember this when replying.I also don't think anyone should point someone else to another list to post and tell them their information here isn't suitable for posting, we're trying on the LoCo Council to reach out to a wider audience in the hopes of making things more productive and easier for everyone involved.

Re: We need your help!
This does not answer the question that was asked of you. You're blaming your tool for its handling of emails. Completely irrelevant to what was asked of you. The question to you was are you suggesting that the digest subscribers and non-subscribers are not allowed to participate on this mailing list? I'm reiterating this as I'm curious for the answer as well. On Sat, 14 Aug 2010, Paul Tagliamonte wrote: I'm on my android, please excuse its handling of emails.

Not reducing quoted text to just the part quoted is also poor mailing list etiquette, but I would like a clarification on policy. Paul, are you suggesting that digest subscribers and non-subscribers are not allowed to participate on this mailing list?

Not being a digest subscriber to any lists I am curious about how one would normally reply to a digest mail. Surely a list would quickly grind to a halt if everyone replied to digests including the full digest as the next days digest would be full of digests from the day before and would be quite um, indigestable.

Well, in theory you do what you'd do with any reply and only quote the part you were responding to. Paul asked Elanor not to reply because it breaks threading, which would seem to suggest that there's no way for a non-subscriber to participate either. I'm sure that's not what he meant but as he declined to answer I suppose we'll simply be left to guess. -- Nathan Haines Ubuntu California Local Community Team -- loco-contacts mailing list loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts

In order to get this email back on track and address this last point, I would like to direct everyone's attention to [1]. There is currently a list of 28 languages that people have started to translate ClassBot into. I am very thankful towards everyone who has taken some time to help with the translations. I also would like to apologize for pushing several new .pot files over the past few days. This is the first project that I have attempted to setup for translations, and I still have a lot to learn. So, thanks again everyone for your help, and please keep up the great work!
