Hi,
I have been in these two lists for quite some time now and I notice
there is a lot of top posting in both lists. I want to suggest that we
adopt (informally) a bottom-posting rule[1]. IMO, it makes reading and
understanding an e-mail reply easier as we will know for sure what
exactly is the person replying to. It is quite common in many other
mailing lists to adopt bottom-posting, especially in high volume
lists. It may take a little effort from list members and would perhaps
put off beginning posters (that's why we should only adopt it
informally), but I still think it's a good practice for the rest of
the lists to adopt.

What do you guys think?

Regards,
Chris

[1] For those unfamiliar with the term:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style (look for bottom-posting
and inline replying section); basically it means replying right below
the thing you are replying to and snipping away unrelated part.
