Maybe this stuff should be the first entry into the non-existent FAQ for
this list ????

just "Bad trouble with 7.1" or something like that.
Agreed!...
Ideally, the title should make it clear to the reader whether it's at all relevant to the reader's interests and knowledge. The more specific, the better. And: PLEEEASE do not start with jam like "how do i...." or so.
I personally think that using tags (such as the often-used [OT] one for off-topic posts, as well as [WAS] and [SOLVED]) helps a lot, especially if
Perhaps we should vote on standard tags? After all this is open source isn't it? :-)
[OT] off topic
[SOLVED] means those who are looking for people to help don't need to continue reading that thread
TOTALLY agreed! Damn...YES!!! the shorter the better! true! true. ack. pleeeease not too much! true! and with offer where to find step-by-step solution...!
[WAS] topic switch. Not sure of it's value for this situation. not sure either.
Perhaps we should start using categories like:
[SOUND] sound related problems [YAST] trouble with YaST [INSTALL] trouble installing [SCRIPT] shell scripts [CRON] cron.. [KDE] KDE related problems [APACHE] help needed with apache. and so on... [POSTFIX] [SENDMAIL] [PROFTPD] yes! yes! yes! 8 chr at max. plus []
If we did this, it would allow, for instance, desktop users to filter right.
What do y'all think? I vote for it. Basically just put a tag with as major a category as possible (while still retaining some specific value) and spell it right :-) i agree with most of your cat's but would add: [ISDN] [NOTEBOOK] [ROUTER] [X] xfree [NEWSUSE] new suse version 8.12 beta [VMWARE] [CRASH] like "debug"
I do like the idea of have dual-access via newsgroup OR email to the same list. say, do we have a list-faq like most newsgroups do? that idea is good. what speaks against it?
Let the flames begin... ;-) ...should we keep a tally of yeses and nos, like the way the Debian project votes for things?
"Peace, Love and Linux" :-)
hmmmn I'd say "Peace Love and ACiD" ... S M I L E...!!! -- *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨¨*¤Oliver@home*º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨*¤ -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq
