Although it isn't time-based, MM2.1 will let you set a default
`moderate' flag on a per-user basis. As long as that flag is set,
member postings will be held for moderator approval. At the same time
a moderator approves of a member's held posting, s/he can clear the
moderate bit, thus taking the member off probation. (This latter
feature is only in cvs).
I think a time-based auto-de-probation feature will have to wait until
after MM2.1.

I'm not quite sure what "rotating footers" mean...
