Looks very good.
Thanks. I just did a cut and paste job of some of the previous posts,
from archives and reordered the sentences. But I think it is worth it.
5. As questions tend to be referred to debian-user and due to the
dilemma of "appropriate mailing list to post", people tend to ask
the same question on multiple mailing lists. ...
This sentence is a bit obtuse and needs to be rewritten in my
estimation. Perhaps something like:
*/As questions tend to be referred to debian-user, and due to the
dilemma of not knowing to which list one should post, people tend to
ask the same question on multiple mailing lists./* This will defeat
the whole purpose of creating a separate list for newcomers and
increases the net traffic many times. Moreover all the replies might
not be CCed to all the mailing lists. As a result, people
experiencing the same problem at a later time and reading the
archives will have to go through similar looking posts on different
mailing lists to find the correct answer.
I went with this one. Thanks for the patch.
