Yes. A great place would be
https://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/ListNetiquette#replying . 

I'll of course run it by all of you before modifying this wiki, but I
think references to old-timers and senile old buggers should be
removed. It's not old vs young, it's clarity vs ambiguity. Also, bottom
posting is just a special case of interleave posting. Bottom posting is
compatible with interleave posting, whereas top posting destroys
interleave posting. I'll try to have the text, for the project's
approval, in a month.

Thanks!
