No. As it says on the tin at http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography "The list is entirely unmoderated..." My assumption is that anyone who is interested and capable of moderating a crypto mailing list will inevitably find that they have more interesting things to do than moderating a crypto mailing list (the failure mode of [email protected]). > But seriously, we can all be moderators in the sense of asking > nicely to take certain discussions elsewhere. That's the intent, and your efforts are appreciated. There was a long discussion about this approach and the possible failure modes early on. Obviously this strategy working well assumes a lot things about the nature of the list participants which may or may not be true. -Jack _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
