Tim,
  I agree. I am against "list moderation" as well.
  In my Charter proposal, I said the Lead list manager will make
decisions - which day-to-day will basically be what you outlined above.

  Charter and List rules are entirely different animals. We need both.
  I would propose that we simply copy OpenHealth's List rules verbatim
(excepting the Minoru disclaimer, of course), see:

What do you think?

I am all ears. Please spell out what you have in mind.

1) How do you determine "popular acclaim" vs. "elected"?
2) How is this any different from what I proposed?
