Probably standard for a mailing list. Everyone hits reply first and then starts
to read.

I tend to think that there is one more person which needs to be explained why
his words mean the same as mine. 

You have experience, let it count.

Create more notes on the web page if that will help. Explain why thing are the

A discussion (I learned at school) is having everyone have its peace,

Keep up the good work!
