First of all, let me apologize for doing this in the past, I'll
certainly remember to not let it happen again.

Second, I'd like to point out that, while I cannot speak for everyone,
and so maybe it's just me, I find this statement: "please trim your
quotes when replying, and also trim the CC list if necessary" a bit
ambiguous.

The quotes part is obvious (and not that many people have ommited to do
that), but to be honest I haven't been clear on who is supposed to be in
the trimmed CC list: the maintainers of the code I'm touching with my
series and Wei? There doesn't seem to be a clear rule about who should
be replied to (or maybe there is and I've missed it? If so, could you
please point it out?). Maybe clearing this up could help with this
problem in the future.


Thanks,
Razvan
