To goal is to make archives source of information, not garbage collectors.
What can make archives useful? - no offtopic discussions + no answers on OT topics - no excessive quoting IMHO, sparse few words, to mark paragraph, should be enough.
What can make list friendly? - posting style with interleaved answers - or bottom posting
What else?
Well, I'm in favor of OT topics on the main list, so long as they are simple, brief, and not argumentative. I agree with the previous poster who said that nobody reads the OT list. I certainly don't, and have no intention of starting to. In order to keep these off the archives, can't the system filter out files whose subject is OT before they get to the archives? I think the general system in use, i.e., bottom replies, is very good, and I have adopted it in email replies to other sources. However, there are times when interleaved answers would be very helpful, as in a list of related questions. I would not object to this. Respectfully submitted--doug
