Hi pards

I hate to poke my horse into your warm conversations, but discussions like this can be kept offlist...as had been pointed out by the sheriffs earlier. And please, although I have'nt attended a LUG meet at Mumbai myself, they can hardly be categorized as "functions"!!

I hope the sheriffs of the list will send a "personal" mail to the people involved...(including me)

New subject: [OT] Reducing S/N Ratio on the LUG

Hi all, There have been number of occassions when we have 1. Received off topics mails like bio-data, business marketing ads... 2. People have been broadcasting instead of direct mailing, just to ask "let me know where do you stay" kind of questions

In fact the people who have been sending the CVs on the list seem so pathetic....They submit .DOC files on a GNU/Linux list, dont bother to read the list guidelines....by reading the CVs, I havent felt even single of the thing posted yet makes an impression...They all seem to be coming with working knowledge and lack nerdy insight.

Can we remove the users who send CVs and business adds directly by sending them (to them, not to group) a notification mail? We dont need them anyways so why bother?

Coming to the second point, lot of people tend to broadcast unnecessarily, can the administrator send them a personal mail in this case and warn them?

This all might seem harsh, but certainly the users should follow list guidelines and if they are not, admin should mediate, this is what I feel. We are certainly not interested to know who stays where and who has what qualifications...

New subject: [OT] Reducing S/N Ratio on the LUG

To the members of the list,

I am in favour of Kiran Ghag's suggestion of stopping (non-Linux related) business marketing ads, and "where do you stay" kind of mails.

On the resume front, I propose a separate list could be setup for those who would like to advertise their Linux skills. Anyone interested in hiring or partnering with others could subscribe to that list, the others obviously will not.

I cannot resist making my next point. :P You see people sending their resumes are not "pathetic", they are in an unfortunate position in their life, and granted, do not take the time to study the rules. Also, if they send DOC files, then it seems they are the ones who are up-to-date, since they know about OpenOffice.org, KOffice, etc. being available for Linux. Sending a DOC file just avoids re-creating a document in another strange format, and I think that is a "smart" thing.

I dont know what is smarter: Knowing HTML,Latex,Docbook or knowing *Office

I beleive HTML is one of the most versatile formats and people shpuld format their CV's in HTML

Also IMHO PDF is again one of the best formats for information sharing. The reader is free for Linux and Windows and you can make PDF's with ghostscript+pdflatex

I've seen people fretting over their .doc documents. Fonts, Indentation, it all seems to get messed up when you open .doc files in different Office suites.

DOC files are evil. plain and simple. There's many more things wrong with DOC files than the fact that the format is proprietary. I've posted my reasons before (possibly on a different list), so go ahead and search for it.

Recreating a document in another strange format is lame, agreed. Using M$ 'doc' format as your main format is lamer.

I dont use any of the office suits. So you are excluding me from your readership. But I do have gv, links -- and many a text editors. ;-)

I thank everyone for their feedback, and I'm glad to see the only point on which some of you guys disagreed with me is on the point of format w.r.t resumes. LOL :P
