+1 for a morning welcome with posting rules. It usually takes two weeks for something to become a habit, from what I see on the mailing list things have improved immensely on the last two weeks in terms of readability just by following a few simple rules that are relatively self evident in how the subjects are being more consistently tagged.

Great suggestion Giorgio

Hi Mike,

Just a quick note about your comment on your blog regarding this proposal,
you say:

"Folks, I have had enough experience with forums and mailing lists to say,
whatever order you try and achieve will never work. Mainly due to the
influx of new members and the fact it¹s community driven from all over the
world.".

I have had a different experience in Italy, years ago there was a mailing
list named macromedia.general.it and each morning a member post a welcome
message with the rules in order to avoid new coming immediately break them.
It worked nice...

Hi All,

I don't know if it has been already discussed but I guess that some
subject tagging rules can help a lot discussions to be well organized and
easy to search.
For instance we can have the following tags

[Disc] = general discussions
[Test] = automation testing / tdd
[Core] = core features discussions
[Comp] = components discussions
[Ann]  = announcements
[OT]   = off topic

And so on... What do you think?

Giorgio
