  Is this guide meant to be an install list-specific guide, or
a generic red hat list etiquette guide?  Anyway, here's a couple
more suggestions for participants:

x) If someone's suggestion fixes your problem, it's useful to say
   thanks publicly to let others know that it worked so that they
   might also avoid that specific problem in the future.  But
   don't stop there -- if you learned something tricky in the
   process, mention it so others can see that as well

   In other words, don't just say, "Thanks, that did the trick."
   Say, "Thanks, that worked, and by the way, here's something
   else that came up during my troubleshooting that others might
   want to know that's related..."

x+1) If you have the power, please avoid attaching those %^$$@&%$
   legal disclaimers that your corporate lawyers keep dreaming up
   Quite simply, it makes you look like a complete ditz to post
   a 3-line request for help, followed by a 15-line legal
   disclaimer telling the entire mailing list that your public
   posting is incredibly private, sensitive and confidential and
   that if, somehow, we received this posting by mistake, we
   should drop everything we're doing and let you know.  We all
   have better things to do.  Really

rday
