You don't need sudo to handle the mailing lists. Actually, it is incredibly hard to moderate the lists from within www-0. IIRC, there are no tools you can run on the server, but there is listadmin.pl and the web ui for doing that from your own machine. If people want to help with the lists as I've said many times before, I'm happy to give out the moderation password in person. Emails require me to sign your GPG key using the usual identity verification protocol of seeing a government issued photo ID and paper copy of the key fingerprint. Requesting sudo access to synhak.org without any prior indication that I should give that kind of trust is reckless behavior. Messing with it can cost synhak actual money. > > Regards, > Andrew L > > On Mar 12, 2014 1:26 AM, "Chris Egeland" <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Justin, >> >> In order to help make my decision on how I will vote on this proposal, I >> would like to ask a few questions.
