Re: [ros-dev] Quoting [was: GCC 4.4]

10 seconds?

I'd need to go into outlooks email settings, change the 'when replying to a
message prefix each line with with '>'', then I can click on reply without
having to manually add a '>' at the start of every line.
Next delete the header and add a 'Joe Bloggs wrote:' in its place and then
format your message.
Then go back into my email settings and swap everything to default outlook
settings, so that normal people I reply to in work, etc don't think I've
lost the plot.

Nope, not gonna happen.  :)

Usenet has nothing to do with Unix today.
Even your favourite software company still maintains active Usenet
newsgroups, whose members usually follow the quoting guidelines :-P

Oh, and I'm currently using Outlook for writing this mail :-)
It maybe takes 10 more seconds to reformat the mail in accordance to the
quoting guidelines.

All in all, I second Timo's opinion about this. If you want to quote certain
parts of a mail here, please abide by the mentioned guidelines.

Best regards,

Colin
