This started out as a snide reply to Neil, but grew into something actually worth sending. Time and thought invariably lead to better email. :)
Moderators: If you'd rather not bother with (or be bothered by) list moderation request emails, then ask (here) to be removed from the moderation and/or owner lists for all the mailing lists. Likewise, if you'd like to assist in the moderation process, or have stopped receiving moderation request emails and think you should be getting them, again, ask here. Additionally, John has informed me that he's cleaned up the ownder/moderator properties of all the lists so they all match now. Now, regarding KPLUG and management of sparkplug.kernel-panic.org and the services thereon: I think what's making this painful for us is that there's no clear definitions of who's responsible for what on sparkplug. At the risk of being shouted down for being a beaurocrat, I think we actually need to create some organizational structure for management of sparkplug, and some clear policies on notifying others of changes made to the club's server/services. I'd be happy to take on the role of "Friendly Neighborhood BOFH^H^H^H^HSysAdmin" if the other members are happy with it. Between the mailing lists and the web site, there's honestly not all that much to do in terms of maintenance, and I tend to be more easily reached than Josh. I would like to say, though, that Josh has done an admirable job of getting everything going, especially with the new OS install, migration to Plone for the website and Mailman for the lists. All this in his spare time outside of work and home life, too. Basically, if we created the position of "KPLUG SysAdmin", I'd be happy to fill it, barring any other members' objections, since I tend to hear about all the niggling kplug sysadminny problems anyway. :) Thoughts?
