That's the "we" I was referring to.

Yes. But the fact that we have read it doesn't in any way inform
other readers, so it's not very meaningful.

1: The "other readers" are not part of the "we", until they read it, at
which time they become part of the "we" and also become informed, at the
same time.

2: Actually, the fact that we have read it, if we act on it, =does=
inform other readers... people who see the POL prepend (if it happens
often enough) will make the connection even absent explicit direction.

So who will make the periodic FAQ postings?

Adopting the convention does not require FAQ postings. We just start
doing it.

Programmers who fail to learn the art of pedantry struggle with a
plethora of bugs. :-)

Nah. Only their customers do.
