It's just whataboutism.
The need to remember an annoying password makes moderating annoying. Further, the interface sucks, there's loads of spam in the moderation queue and for months there's nothing to do. Further, someone sending some not so nice messages doesn't mean moderation you immediately need moderation. > If keeping track of the mailing-list admin password is too complicated, > I'd be happy to help moderate it. The admin password is whataboutism :-P I was talking about the moderation password. Andre Klapper offered to assist as well. I didn't see a new password, feel free to request a reset a new one from AV, then share with whomever is interested. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
