Mailing List etiquette question.

[Recordon, David]

Hi Gavin,
As being one that often floats proposals to the list, I'd encourage people to voice their opinions even if it is just agreeing with someone else.  With silence it is hard to know if people agree with you, think you're crazy, don't care, or haven't read it.

Hi everyone, 
 
Just a quick question.
I was about to send a reply in support of Avery's suggestion, but before I did thought I would ask;
 
Is it appropriate to respond to the list with,
"Yes - I agree  - that seems like a simple / easily implemented solution"
(in essence adding support to the proposal, allowing all subscribers to gauge the "worthiness" of the suggestion - yet, not adding in any new information)
 
On the other hand, it almost seems like spamming the list?
 
Thanks.
