while you are using debian mailing lists, you shall comply with the list
rules: [from debian.org/Mailinglists]
Code of conduct
When using the Debian mailing lists, please follow these rules:
Do not send spam; see the advertising policy below.
*Send all of your e-mails in English. Only use other languages on mailing
lists where that is explicitely allowed (e.g. French on
debian-user-french).
*Make sure that you are using the proper list. In particular, don't send
user-related questions to developer-related mailing lists.
*Wrap your lines at 80 characters or less for ordinary discussion. Lines
longer than 80 characters are acceptable for computer-generated output
(e.g., ls -l).
*Do not send automated "out-of-office" or "vacation" messages.
*Do not send subscription or unsubscription requests to the list address
itself; use the respective -request address instead.
*Never send your messages in HTML; use plain text instead.
*Avoid sending large attachments.
*When replying to messages on the mailing list, do not send a carbon copy
(CC) to the original poster unless they explicitly request to be copied.
*If you send messages to lists to which you are not subscribed, always
note that fact in the body of your message.
*Do not use foul language; besides, some people receive the lists via
packet radio, where swearing is illegal.
*Try not to flame; it is not polite.
