You identify yourself as a software professional, but there are some
things you could do better to present yourself as one in a open,
distributed development model.

0. Listen, Research, Do, Talk
Don't lecture, participate.

1. Soften the tone of your messages.

2. Please include a name in your From: . You will find more generous
responses when people can identify you as opposed to a throw away
email address.

3. Please provide a subject. "Re: wp-testers Digest, Vol 31, Issue 59"
is a fast way to have your emails deleted.

3.1. Once you have a subject don't change it with the next email.

0. Listen, Research, Do, Talk
Don't lecture, participate.

Repeat 0.

Cheers,
