The thread  "Instructions for installing Slackware" is a lightning 
example how to ruin a mailing list by posting messages to all list
members, messages which often would be better sent by email.
So please use email when you want to communicate a message to a
list member and that message isn't helpful/interesting for the Blinux
crowd. 

Please read the Blinux FAQ which can be found at the Blinux Site at
http://leb.net/blinux

Enjoy!
