Bear in mind that Electron Workshop is run by volunteers, and these days 
many of them probably don't really use email much at all.  It's helpful 
to explain netiquette, but also important to be quick to praise good 
work and slow to take public offense at mistakes.  A private explanation 
of best practices (and their history, if you like) might be less 
discouraging!

Cheers,
