 <body><s1 title="Important Notice">
   <p><strong>IMPORTANT: Before posting a question or problem to any mailing list,
    </strong>please first look at the following resources in this order:</p>
   <ol>
    <li><connect href="faq.html">FAQs</connect></li>
    <li><link href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Data_Formats/Markup_Languages/XML/">ODP XML links</link>
     - a wealth of general XML information.</li>
    <li><connect href="mail-archives.html">Mailing list archives</connect> - 
     a veritable goldmine of Poi-specific information - if you know where to look!</li>
   </ol>

   <p><strong>IMPORTANT:</strong> Careful postings please.
    These are high-volume lists, so we all needs ways to help us all
    work smarter.
    See tips for <link href="contrib.html#tips">Contributing</link>
   </p>
  </s1>

  <s1 title="Poi Users">
   <p><link href="mailto://poi-user-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org">Subscribe</link>
      <link href="mailto://poi-user-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org">Unsubscribe</link>
   </p>

   <p>The general list, for problems, bug reports, asking for advice on how
    best to implement a site, comparisons with other frameworks, etc.
    But don't forget to look in the FAQ first, please!</p>

   <p><strong>This is also not an appropriate list for general Java questions.</strong>
    Instead try <link href="news:comp.lang.java.help">news:comp.lang.java.help</link>
    or <link href="http://hotdispatch.com/">http://hotdispatch.com/</link>, for
    example.</p>
    
   <p><strong>This is not an appropriate list for general XML questions.</strong> 
    Instead
    look at the <link href="http://dmoz.org/">ODP</link> for 
    <link href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Data_Formats/Markup_Languages/XML/">XML/XSL links</link>
    (such as the excellent <link href="http://www.zvon.org/xxl/XSLTutorial/Books/Book1/index.html">
    XSL tutorial at Zvon.org</link>) or try the 
    <link href="http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/">Mulberrytech XSL list</link>.</p>

   <p><strong>IMPORTANT:</strong> If you are posting about a problem
    you are having (as most people do), it will aid in finding a
    speedy resolution if you provide full configuration details
    (especially the <strong>version number</strong>, but also your
    operating system, JDK version, etc.), and full details of any
    errors encountered (including full error messages and stack
    traces).</p>

   <p>Please also have some consideration for the other users on the list - this is a
    busy list and we do not appreciate getting the exact same message posted impatiently
    several times a day/week! Doing so is only likely to make your question answered more
    slowly, or not at all, not faster.</p>

  <s1 title="Poi Dev">
   <p><link href="mailto://poi-dev-subscribe@jakarta.apache.org">Subscribe</link>
      <link href="mailto://poi-dev-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org">Unsubscribe</link>
   </p>

   <p>This list is for developers <strong>working on</strong> or wanting to work on
    Poi itself (not developers merely working <strong>with</strong> Poi),
    for code patches to Poi to be posted (please use <code>diff -u</code> format),
    and for general Poi questions.</p>

   <p>Note this is <strong>NOT</strong> for general Poi questions like "Why
    isn't Poi working on my machine?" - 
    please ask those sorts of questions on users list (after reading the
    FAQ first, of course).</p>
