It's adviced to subscribe to the list if you want to be FWIW: "adviced" is misspelled, it should be "advised", and IMO, it feels like poor style to begin a sentence with a contraction. Not strictly wrong, but sufficiently informal that I think it is out of place in docs like this. Better to just say "It is", or even just "You are", especially as you use "you" later in the sentence. I actually think simplifying that sentence considerably is preferable: "To be sure you receive all follow-up mails you should subscribe to the list." flows better and is more succinct than "It's advised to subscribe to the list if you want to be sure you're not missing follow-up discussion". > +sure you're not missing follow-up discussion, or if your interest in > +the project is wider than a one-off bug report, question or patch. cheers, yves -- perl -Mre=debug -e "/just|another|perl|hacker/"
