[ RadSafe ] NET iquette

Tue Aug 10 17:45:53 CDT 2010

I am not so sure how practical it will be to drop the "preferably".
It does not concern me, I have only been subscribed over the years
using my name and an email at a domain which identifies my affiliation
unambiguously.
 But I can imagine there are people who might be sources of useful
information and be unwilling to share their identity for various and
understandable, legitimate reasons - losing them would be a shame.
 After all I don't remember having many - if any - trolls here posting
without identifying themselves.
 The whole thing is too much fuss about nothing IMO.

The change of the reply field to point to the list is perhaps 20
years overdue, I suppose :-) . Hopefully it won't be too much
hassle to implement. Not a big deal either, but the correct thing
to do. Whoever has posted to the list is also subscribed and will
get the replies from the list.

And another "not big deal" but irritating nowadays: many posts contain
lines which are way too long. This makes quoting more of a hassle
(e.g. I had to reformat the paragraphs of the message I am quoting
now). No big deal but in plain text - as we post on this list - including
a CR every once in a while is no big deal either :-). Whenever possible
or at all applicable, that is.
