Here's one for the "questions of policy" basket, since it just came up on one of the IJ comms I watch.
What happens when the maintainer of a community is inactive on the service for a long time? What appears to be a standing LJ policy *on paper*, that a comm with a long-inactive maintainer will have a new maintainer appointed randomly from the members, has been put into practice on LJ and seems to be occasioning some bad reactions. I have no idea how "inactivity" was defined or what measures may have been taken to contact the maintainer, all I saw was the notice that one chosen member got. I have no strong opinions one way or the other, myself. But given how negative the responses to this have been so far, it seems like this may be something DW will want to think about.
