-1 Some moderators moderate many lists (in some cases, hundreds, but dozens are not uncommon), and are members of few. For those people who operate that way, "auto-membership" would be a significant annoyance, and in mass-moderation contexts, it would all come at once. OTOH, people can only read so many lists, and they will join as they become interested, thus amortizing the scutwork. > in my opinion, this is often the case, isn't ? and if the moderator > is also a member of the list, he has to remember two different > password, not very friendly With multiple moderators, that would mean that they can all access each other's subscriptions. Also the moderator can change her personal password. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
