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.
