Here are the rules regarding expected conduct and content from DB2-L posts and posters:
1) Treat everyone professionally
2) Do not wander to far from the basic subject (more or less)
3) Identify posts that are 'Ads'. Use [AD]. Have some doubt then error on the side of caution.
4) In the subject line, indicate which Db2 (z/os or luw) and version you are referring to. That way you get the best response to your post.
5) And NO nick names.!!!!!!!!! (this also refers to #1 above). You will be removed from the listserv.
6) When the Administrator(s) close a thread it is closed. If you post following their closing the thread, you risk being kicked off the listserv.
