I see a (quite limited) discussion, not a broad agreement. This discussion diverges from my initial intention. I am absolute in favor of 'netiquette', but netiquette is about much more than looking at the posting style.[0][1] "Rule 10: Be forgiving of other people's mistakes Everyone was a network newbie once. And not everyone has had the benefit of reading this book. So when someone makes a mistake -- whether it's a spelling error or a spelling flame, a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer -- be kind about it. If it's a minor error, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before reacting. Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else. If you do decide to inform someone of a mistake, point it out politely, and preferably by private email rather than in public. Give people the benefit of the doubt; assume they just don't know any better. And never be arrogant or self-righteous about it. Just as it's a law of nature that spelling flames always contain spelling errors, notes pointing out Netiquette violations are often examples of poor Netiquette."[2] Please have a look especially at the last sentence, that explains much better the actual case than I could do. So I propose to use *and* apply to a real 'netiquette' document instead of the quite short discussion thread as the pointer for Tryton discussion groups. I am very much in favor of [1], as [3] is contradictory in itself (using capitals and multiple exclamation marks for e.g. "DO NOT TOP-POST and DO trim your replies!!!" while saying in the very same document "Don't SHOUT! While it might look clearer to you if everything is in capitals in your message, it is considered SHOUTING, and therefore very rude.")
