Within ISOC's Code of Conduct, we can find a very useful and interesting prescription:
"Only send a message to the entire list if everyone can benefit from it. Do not send “thank you” and “me too” replies to the full list".
Considering the growing number of messages that end up filling our mailboxes here in the NCSG community, I would kindly like to suggest, and check if others agree, that we also adopt this as a good practice. This is not the same as saying that we should not promote these nice gestures of recognizing others' work and good ideas, but only that these messages would be better directed only to the person who will surely appreciate them, not to the whole list.
Cordially,
Pedro de Perdigão Lana
