Housekeeping: some guidelines (with added cleaning power)

We ask that messages about buying and selling cameras be restricted to
Friday. If you face ruin or shame from waiting until Friday to announce your
desire to buy or sell, no one will punish you, but we would prefer that you
mind your manners and limit such postings to Fridays.

If you are trying to send a message to the LUG, you must send it in
plain text. The Leica Users list does not accept "rich text" mail,
which is also called "MIME" or "styled text".

Please do not use the LUG to publicise activities at public commerce sites
such as eBay. We all know how to look there if we are interested, and if we
are not interested, we don't want to read about it here. If you are a
shopkeeper or a manufacturer and you believe that your wares are of value to
the LUG members, you may from time to time remind us of the existence of
your business.

The most important rules for the LUG are:

"Shut up and take pictures!" (and then show them to us)

"Criticise pictures and cameras, not people."

(Trust me, truly terrible and sticky disasters will occur if you do not
follow the rules)
