i have put a page online that should describe the netiquette of the pd-related lists (or my views, how they could look like)
I'd say, as we're an english list, directing users directly to: http://www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html would be better in the quoting department.
There are some spelling errors, maybe a native speaker can look over this, as I would surly overlook some.
We better fix those spelling errors quick! Surely we don't want Frank to become surly! ;-)
(see, there is some benefit to English's whacked spelling: unintended humor!)

Maybe we should also try to explain pd-patch attachments? Sometimes they are inside the mail, which is annoying, as you have to copypaste the relevant parts. However I don't know, which mail software is responsible for this. Mutt seems to get it right anyway.
Also some remarks about the different pd-lists would be good. I think it's a bit annoying if there are too technical, development topics on the main pd-list. Everything which involves source code should go to pd-dev. Maybe then we also could promote pd-ot a bit for questions like: "Which graphics card is the best?" or "No sound on Linux".
Other than that, I think it's a very good text, but I think, we have a similar view on netiquette anyway, so lets hope for more comments. ;)
