The delay in getting forum posts quite often means that questions are already answered before they even reach us. signature.asc Description: PGP signature ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Yesterday there was a spate of posts from gimpusers.com, the earliest from mid-october. And no, it was not a reposting of everything. I can notice this because I list my mailboxes in date-sent order. We are subscribed, so we don't need a moderator to have the time to take pity on our posts.

I have not seen any batches of duplicate posts arriving here, just the normal flow of the list, so all I can say is not everyone is affected by whatever's going on. I don't think the list is moderated; I've never heard it mentioned, and my own posts usually show up within a minute or two. :o/ signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
