As the issues with the mailing list(s), are actually issues with the mail server itself. And Andreas is correct. Multiple times in the past people have stepped up and offered to help out. But they've either not been given any information how to do so (silence). Or in a couple cases where I know someone was brought into discussion, they were shipped off with a 'talk to person X', and person X ended up being "don't need help, I've got it". Really seems we have an issue here of "failure of democratic rule". No-one is empowered to tell someone that they can take it on. No-one even knows who/how to give access to someone to take it on. And in the rare case that someone does have the ability to give someone access, it's never granted. We need a way for infrastructure stuff like like to have a solid point person, who can give others power to handle things. Sounds like we have some people willing to help out. (Andreas? Sara?) — People just need to give them access and let things happen. Eli
