Posting guidelines#

Someone suggested the rule "If you wouldn't say it to your Mom, don't post it here." However, unless you've got a mom like Dilbert's (who can tell the difference between packet-routing networks and circuit-switching networks), the mom rule seems a tad overspecified. So:
  • All postings must be civil.
  • Off-topic posts must be humorous and not dominate the group.
