<br>Showing courtesy and respect to others is a vital part of the Android culture, and we expect everyone participating in the Android community to join us in accepting nothing less.

<li><b>Allowed discussion topics</b>
|
||||
<br>Most topics are technical discussions of Android or users helping each other, but this group is intended for discussions of<i>everything</i>
|
||||
in the world of Android. We welcome announcements and discussion of products, libraries, publications, and other interesting Android-related news. We even welcome (polite!) discussion of articles and ideas critical of Android--after all, we can't improve if we don't listen. There are no restrictions on the subject matter, and we don't exclude discussions of commercial products if users are interested in talking about them.<br><br>However, we hate spam almost as passionately as we love courtesy and respect, so we reserve the right to limit discussions that amount to spam. Outright spam will result in the spammer being immediately and permanently banned from the list.
|
||||
<br>Most of our groups are for technical discussions of Android or users
|
||||
helping each other. Generally we don't put hard restrictions on the topics
|
||||
discussed in the group: as long as the topic is relevant to Android in some
|
||||
way, it's welcome on our groups. We welcome announcements and discussion of
|
||||
products, libraries, publications, and other interesting Android-related news,
|
||||
but <b>please do not cross-post</b>. Post only to the most relevant group for
|
||||
your message. We even welcome (polite!) discussion of articles and ideas
|
||||
critical of Android--after all, we can't improve if we don't listen.<br><br>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><b>Working Lists</b>
|
||||
<br>Some of our groups are considered "working lists", by which we mean that the
|
||||
list is intended to be used in support of the completion of specific tasks. On
|
||||
these groups, we don't welcome off-topic conversations, and will generally ask
|
||||
you to take general discussions to a different list. Since these are lists
|
||||
where people are trying to get work done, we will be pretty aggressive about
|
||||
keeping the noise level low. We ask that you respect our contributors' time
|
||||
and keep general discussions to appropriate lists.<br><br>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
|
||||
<li><b>Spam</b>
|
||||
<br>We hate spam almost as passionately as we love courtesy and respect, so we
|
||||
reserve the right to limit discussions that amount to spam. Outright spam will
|
||||
result in the spammer being immediately and permanently banned from the list.
|
||||
<br><br></li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>The most important rule is friendliness. Remember: disrespect and rudeness are not welcome in our community under any circumstances. We don't have a formal policy on dealing with troublemakers, and we hope we never need one.That said, we do pledge to do our best to be fair, and we will always try to warn someone before banning him or her.
