Perhaps we could have a volunteer who could gently steer newbies or
mild violations in the proper direction without getting too harsh on
them? Or a Luau List Ettiquette article that can be gently worded and
sent to offending parties?
In all fairness, I personally don't see any problem with the
occasional commercial posting, providing it is related to the list,
such as the infrequnt links to job openings of interest to non-MS IT
professionals or announcments of open-source bases businesses and
entrepenuers. I wouldn't want to see these postings everyday, but a
couple of them in any given week doesn't seem unreasonable.
Just my 2 cents worth =-)
