Like many subscribers I lurk more than post these days, but do follow what's going on every day or two. Just happen to be ill for the last couple of days so taking a while to get anything done, then needed the password reset (which is also an indication of how much "looking after" this list usually needs!)

Oops, I've just seen Matthew's post. @Matthew: I agree, this is rare. Are you happy with continuing to support the talk-gb list on your own or will extra volunteers help?

Re: [Talk-GB] List moderator - volunteers needed
Thanks for the clarification Tom. Are we allowed to know the person's name? The wiki refers to Matthew Newton but I wasn't sure if this was still correct. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mailing_lists Thanks Rob On Sat, 14 Mar 2020, 11:38 Tom Hughes, wrote: > On 14/03/2020 11:37, Dan S wrote: > > Op za 14 mrt. 2020 om 11:20 schreef Tom Hughes via Talk-GB > > : > >> > >> On 14/03/2020 11:13, Rob Nickerson wrote: > >> > >>> As may have seen in Simon's response it sounds like we currently lack > >>> list moderators.

[Talk-GB] List moderator - volunteers needed
Hi all, As may have seen in Simon's response it sounds like we currently lack list moderators. If this is something you would like to do please email this mailing list. Likewise we probably need to think about the criteria of what makes a good list moderator. If there are any traits that you'd like to see in a mailing list moderator please share with this mailing list. Thanks, Rob ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
