It's bad that the Linux community tends to educate people with tons of redundant words, when they don't have a choice not to read it. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ IMO would be the better link and if somebody already has subscribed and a subscription mail came through the list, this isn't fatal. Dyslexia, braille and other reasons should be good enough to reduce the amount of words for basic information. A thread with redundant words is ok, because everybody is free not to read it. No rant ;), just 2 cents, since I'm a dyslexic and wonder about this Linux own issue. E.g. read a book to set up your boot loaders menu and now read a book about how to subscribe to a Debian mailing list. I've good luck, because I can skip a lot when watching at the monitor, I guess using braille, people have to read much more irrelevant stuff.
