All,
I would like to remind everyone on this list that this is the -newbie
list. It is expected that posters may not be fully aware of the norms
the we we at Kernel-Panic expect things to be done.
I ask that everyone take an extra second or two before hitting send, and
ensure that what they are sending is helpful and avoids any kind of
insult.
I also ask that anyone that is reading a posting remember that no one is
insulting anybody else. We all need to keep in mind that people's
learning and teaching styles differ.
I don't have any good guidance to when to take advice or pointers
off-list.
The Kernel-Panic group has some of the most knowledgeable people about a
broad cross-section of topics, and they are also some of the
friendliest, and eager to help people.
Please keep up the good work. Thank you.
For what it's worth, I think I have been fairly gentle most of the
time, trying to coax our correspondent into giving some useful
information to those who would like to help him. Also tossing in a
couple of helpful hints. It doesn't seem to have sunk in.
