1.3 Guidelines for posting to the mailing list
</H2>
Life for mailing list subscribers will be easier if everybody
complies with the following guidelines:
<UL>
<LI>Before posting, <EM>please</EM>: browse or search the archives –
links are available in the ``Contacts'' section of the web site.
Most questions are asked over and over again. Also: make an attempt
to search the
available documentation, notably the FAQs and the User Guide(s).
The answer to most questions is already there.
</LI>
<LI>Reply to both the mailing list and the author or the post, using
``Reply to all''.
</LI>
<LI>Sign your post with your name and affiliation.
</LI>
<LI>Choose a meaningful subject. Do not start a new thread by making
a "reply" to an existing message: it will confuse the ordering of
messages into threads that most mailers can do. In particular, do
not use "Reply" to a Digest!!!
</LI>
<LI>Be short: no need to send 128 copies of the same error message just
because this is what came out of your 128-processor run. No need to
send the entire compilation log for a single error appearing at the end.
</LI>
<LI>Do not post large attachments: post a link to a place where the
attachment(s) can be downloaded from, such as e.g. DropBox, GoogleDocs,
or one of the various web temporary storage spaces.
</LI>
<LI>Avoid excessive or irrelevant quoting of previous messages. Your
message must be immediately visible and easily readable, not hidden
into a sea of quoted text.
</LI>
<LI>Remember that even experts cannot guess where a problem lies in
the absence of sufficient information. One piece of information that
must <EM>always</EM> be provided is the version number of Q<SMALL>UANTUM </SMALL>ESPRESSO.
</LI>
<LI>Remember that the mailing list is a voluntary endeavor: nobody is
entitled to an answer, even less to an immediate answer.
</LI>
<LI>Finally, please note that the mailing list is not a replacement
for your own work, nor is it a replacement for your thesis director's
work.
</LI>
</UL>
