The questions are framed around this
hypothetical scenario: Suppose I were to post a message to the
list describing some experiment I did, creating a Web page
containing (say) some Latin characters — not obscure,
just-added-in-Unicode-8 characters, but ones that have been in
the standard for some time; that my process for creating the
file was to use (say) Notepad and entering HTML numeric
character references; and that my findings were that it
worked.
Q1: Would you find that to be an
interesting post that adds makes your participation in the
list more useful, or would you find it a noisy distraction
that reduces the value you get from participating in the list?
Q2: If I were to send messages along that
line on a regular basis, would that add value to your
participation in the list, or reduce it?
Q3: If 50 people (still a small portion of
the list membership) were to send messages along that line on
a regular basis, would that add value to your participation in
the list, or reduce it?
