Re: Policy on the list

is it correct / useful / polite to close a thread marking it as
[solved] or something like this, or it's just a waste of time / space
/ .... ?


I think it could be useful, so other people wanting to help don't
waste time trying to give further advices, and people needing help in
that subject can see that the problem has been solved.

I'd like to see a wrap-up post, with '[solved]' in the subject, and including what the working solution actually is; that way, someone searching the mailing list archives can quickly home-in on the solution...

And remember, a search of the archives is pretty-much mandatory before you post for help...or sure enough, someone will jump all over you! :-)
