Some changes were made recently to a couple of FAQ entries and I think that
we should discuss the changes made. Specifically adding commas to lists. You
see, when I went to school, lists did not need commas; however I see in CVS
that they were put in.
So which is it to be commas in a list or no commas?
In either case ALL the existing documents, including help, need to be checked
and corrected to whatever standard we choose.
Ger,
I looked up the use of lists in two college English textbooks (early 1980s) and
in a fairly new dictionary (year 2000), and I agree that your method is correct.
My edits to the FAQs were wrong. I'm very sorry.
Thank you very much for pointing out my error. I appreciate it, and I learned
from it.
Thanx again!
Diane
