Hi list
Could I be so bold as to ask what criteria is used to determine which =
questions (posted to the list) are answered first (or at all)?

I had noticed that some folks manage to get 2 and 3 postings answered =
consequtively while my newbie posting appears to be avoided =3D)

What do I draw from this? That my question is too basic and others are =
given priority because they are more interesting to the respondents? I'm =
puzzled......

I would appreciate any observations on this situation. I have =
participated in other mail lists and havent come across this situation =
before. I am committed to learning UNIX and plan to stick with FreeBSD - =
I hope I can help others in time.

-Dave
