to your point about the protocol....i frequently learn things I can use from
the side bits that may or may not make it into an endpoint summary...for
instance, sometimes someone suggests something that doesn't fix the original
postee's problem, but DOES fix one i'm having but haven't posted yet. The
postee would not have included that in his summary because it wasn't
critical path for his solution, yet I still learned something. Just my 2c.

Hi

Managers tend to like things like this:

http://www.hp.com/products1/unix/operating/infolibrary/reports/2002Unix_exec
summary.pdf

Management by recognition rather than understanding.

Having worked on both they are much the same depending on what addons you
get.

But I must admit the HP-UX equivalence of this list has a better protocol:
No posting to "all" for everything
1. You raise a question
2. All replies direct to that person.
3. The initial person that raised the question has to reply to the group in
summary
       - in what best resolved the issue
   Or
     - what was relevant and most interesting
