Obviously I wasn't party to the private discussion, but that seems an odd decision in a community that's so transparent in its intent an implementation. I suggest the lists of moderators be made available somewhere because: - The identities of the list moderators seem very hard to determine by any other means - This mode of contribution gets little enough recognition as it is, and the people contributing this way should be recognised.
