Hi OP,
I must side with Gerhard on at least one point: in this whole thread, he is
the only one to have changed the subject line to something actually related
to what is being discussed.
This whole discussion could have been interesting to some people researching
the archives of this list. However, how is anything that has been said
related to "Welcome to the 'development' mailing list"??? This whole thread
is lost as far as the archives are concerned.
It's considered good netiquette to properly advertise the content of a mail by
giving a meaningfull subject line. Any of the people who have replied to your
email could have changed the topic line, too, to correct your original lack
of manners. Gerhard is the only one to have done so.
"Top-posting" is also considered bad manners.
If you think about them, there are some good reasons behind each commonly
agreed rule of netiquette, just like there are good reasons behind each of
Drupal's very detailed coding standards.
Thanks for taking such rules into consideration.
Augustin.
