Whilst I appreciate that it's ironic that I'm adding to the noise I am  
about to say I would prefer not to see, I found this list most  
attractive and useful so far when it was nothing more than brief  
statements of things that were broken, with no analysis. Ideally (in  
my opinion) any analysis, troubleshooting, drawing of conclusions or  
other meta-chat would happen somewhere else where I couldn't see it.
