Hi Mirek, Kévin, Jay! Wow, thanks a lot for your really quick (and positive) replies concerning the moderator question. Since you three answered mostly independently, I'll answer commenting my own mail ... :-)
Personally, I think having three moderators in total is very fine for this kind of list (medium volume). One of the reasons is, that every moderator will be noticed about "pending" mails ... so work might be doubled in rare cases. So I propose (please object if you think that is wrong) to add Mirek and Kévin (being the first two who replied). Jay, thanks a lot for your offer as well! The next steps are: I will send a mail with your names attached to the moderator list. One one the admins will take care that you get added - then you will get mails from the mailing list system containing the message of the (unsubscribed) poster. If everything is clean (subject, poster address, content - if readable - because there are sometimes strange encoding issues) then you reply to this mail to let it go through. It would also be helpful to send a mail to the poster to tell him that he isn't subscribed - so he won't notice any replies to his mail (because these will go to the mailing list only). Furthermore, you'll get added to the internal moderators list. Very rarely, it is meant to inform you about updates / or you might get in touch with other moderators. Again, thanks for joining!
