This (posting authority etc) hasn't been true for a long time now.
Suggested new text:

  Posting on the list is a privilege.  It is suggested that you
  lurk for a while to get a gist of how things work on the list.
  Reading the list archives can also be very useful.

> 3. What is the accepted standard for posting?

I suggest a new Q&A be inserted after this question:

  4. Why all these rules on how to write your message?  

  Simply: More signal, less noise.  Per the list owner, each of the
  rules and guidelines are things that he has seen help keep a
  mailing list on track, help maintain mutual respect among the
  members, and help keep the discussions focussed and useful.
