Reading the list for a short while before posting, it became fairly
obvious to me what was expected in order to receive help. But, since
posting a rant to the mail list only informs people who read the list
of your displeasure, and given that the group most likely to benefit
from your advice are new list members, it might behoove us to post a
clear(er) list of expectations on the org-mode site when we introduce
potential users to the list.

Best wishes,
Jeff
