I draw your attention to the Guidelines document for all Fedora mailing
lists, particularly this section:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines#Proper_posting_style

I mention this merely to correct the impression that the top-posting
question is of concern only to a few holdouts on the Evo list. It's
actually a widely held view on many technical mailing lists, so get over
it. Note that the Evo list doesn't have such a Guidelines document, so
the style is really up to each member, but just as a general rule it's
normally considered polite to follow the practices of the group you're
interacting with.

Particularly when you're asking for their help.
