The three rules of Ruby Quiz:
I'd like to propose a new rule (1.5?):
Please flag all submissions and discussions of quizzes by starting the
subject with the string "[QUIZ]".
I really enjoy following the discussions of the different quizzes
even though I rarely have time to do them anymore. But in a 100 to 200
message per day mailing list, it is easy to miss a submission or a
discussion when the subject line doesn't indicate that it is
quiz-related. Apparently I am not the only person having this problem,
as illustrated by one of the RRobots submissions being missed last week.
This doesn't seem like it would be a particularly burdensome rule,
and it would make things a lot easier to follow.
If we want to get really bold, the rule could also ask people
submitting solutions to start the subject with "[QUIZ][SOLUTION]" )
Thoughts?
