<h3>Why do we need money?</h3>
-You may be wondering why the Samba Team needs money now, when we have survived for 10 years without
-asking for donations. The main expenses that we have are travel expenses for team members to the
-major Samba related conferences and expenses for running the main samba.org site. We occasionally
-have other expenses (eg. small pieces of hardware and books) but that is less common.<p>
-
-A good example of our travel expenses is the <a href="http://www.cifs2002.org/">CIFS'2002
-conference</a> in San Jose. We have eleven team members attending this year and while most of them
-are covered by the company they work for, we do need to provide international travel and
-accomodation for 4 people.<p>
-
-Our other major expense is the hosting of the main samba.org server. Up till now we have used
-servers generously provided by various vendors, but we are now looking at the possibility of moving
-to a commercial dedicated hosting provider. We are evaluating offers from several providers that
-have offered us very large discounts, but even with that it looks like we will need about US$200 a
-month.<p>
-
-We do already have a good cash reserve from the Linus Torvalds/IDG prize we received at the 2001
-Linuxworld expo, but that won't last forever and is being quickly eroded.<p>

<ol>
<li>Make your subject short and descriptive. Avoid the words "help" or

might look like "Slow response with Excel files" or "Migrating from
Samba PDC to NT PDC".</li>

only the relevant lines, enough to establish context, are included.

-
<li>Trim irrelevant headers from the original message in your reply. All
we need to see is a) From, b) Date, and c) Subject. We don't even
really need the Subject, if you haven't changed it. Better yet is to
just preface the original message with "On [date] [someone] wrote:".</li>
