Hi Raju,
Thanks a lot for your effort. It's appreciated. One thing: who is this
addressed to? I think you have words of advice for both people seeking
help and those offering it. My suggestion would be to separate the two
into two different sections or even two different files.

People access debian.user via a list or a newsgroup. I'd suggest (if
this is doable) sending out a version of this with each news
subscription to the list. For the newsgroup, posting the latest version
under the heading: "Advice on posting to this list/newsgroup (update)",
say once a month. Maybe both of these things could be automated, I don't
know.

Anyway, thanks again.
Jonathan
