Hi

Just a few points which have become obvious in the last day or two which I 
felt it worth emphasising. These points have been added to the list 
guidelines. If anyone would like a full copy of the guidelines, please let 
me know.



This can be a very high traffic list from time to time, for example when new 
products are found to be accessible or when a new software or firmware 
version pertaining to a player is released. In order to avoid high traffic, 
it is very strongly suggested that you remember the following points before 
sending mail to the list.

1. Most importantly, please let the subject line of the message reflect the 
topic. For example, if a reader has asked about a feature relating to a 
specific product, the message should not include information about a 
different product. Please change the subject line in that instance so that 
readers can choose to delete the message if it is of no interest.

2. Is the message relevant. While it is nice and indeed encouraging to thank 
people for assistance they have given, it is probably best to write to the 
sender privately rather than have that message go to the list. It is no 
interest to the hundreds of other people subscribing.



In summary, these guidelines are not in the least meant to be dictatorial, 
but rather to ensure that the list provides helpful and relevant information 
without it being manually moderated.
