   Wow, thank you for these kind words;
you're mighty sweet!

   With all the best of wishes for you & yours, now & always,
your friend always,

   BTW - I'm quite curious as to the play you're working on;
I've always been involved in the arts too.

Hi :)
I like the bits that say 

"... [show rest of quote]"

so that you can click on them to see the rest of the remaining thread if you 
want to.  Of course you can easily read all the comments from top-posters with 
ease.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

[anne-ology]

   Jabberwocky
 by Lewis Carroll

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
  The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
  The frumious Bandersnatch!”

He took his vorpal sword in hand;
  Long time the manxome foe he sought —
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
  And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
  The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
  And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
  The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
  He went galumphing back.

“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
  Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
  He chortled in his joy.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
  Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
  And the mome raths outgrabe.

[anne-ology]

   You're so very cute; and very kind; THANK YOU for the glowing
compliments.

   I've a number of pet-peeves, but these crazy electric windows may be
the topper - at least the longest-standing;
   back as a kid, a friend's parent's saved and purchased their
dream car - a Rolls Royce;
  well, when it arrived ... within 2 weeks; the right, rear
window was stuck in the 1/2 open position -
 no mechanic knew why or what to do about it; some freak of
the electronic system  ;-)

RE: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

[V Stuart Foote]

Top post, bottom post, interspersed --- it is all pretty much the same in the 
end for delivering and exchanging information. 

But what REALLY makes a difference in effort for recipients and for following 
the thread is simply trimming the response--by hand, or allowing your favorite 
news reader or email client to do it.

The need is especially notable if you review threads on Nabble archive--this 
thread for example: 
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Seeking-for-list-moderators-tp4053736.html

it is inconvenient but so is the way gmail sets things up; I think

I think trying to _write_ bottom-posting when the email program

I know this is a perennial disagreement; perhaps top-posters might at least

Gosh @anne-ology,

Formatting of your posts are always sooo far out there, i.e. off standards, I 
figured to give you a nod with the top posted and right justified +1, and a 
centered +2--although if I'd been thinking sharply enough I'd have made it a

nearly meaningless opening lines; why read further? with 
bottom-posting, you see right away what the issue was, which motivates 
further reading.


I know this is a perennial disagreement; perhaps top-posters might at 
least consider pruning the thread so it's easier to know what they are 
talking about.

Hi :)
You 2 have kinda "missed the boat" on that one.  Now you would need to convince 
all handset and mobile device makers, plus all office workers everywhere to 
revert back to a system that almost no-one feels comfortable with.  Even 
in-line posts often freak people out.  If you want to make that your mission 
before accepting people into LibreOffice then you have a big challenge ahead of 
you.  Alternatively we could just make these lists unable to cope with any new 
people and make new people feel very unwelcome.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
I still haven't read the Faq yet.  Hopefully i might get started on all this 
over the weekend.  


Just checking my first impressions are right.  So, most of the blocked messages 
are from people that are not subscribed?  Those fall into 3 main categories
1.  Spam

2.  Junk
3.  Legitimate post (i hesitate to use the term "serious" given the nature of 
many legitimate posts to this list)

For 1 & 2 we do nothing and just let the message get dealt with automatically.  
It's only the  3rd case that  we unblock them.  


This looks a lot more trivial than i was expecting.  The only issues might be 
the volume of traffic, how we co-ordinate on the "moderators" mailing list and 
how complex the unblocking process is.  

Regards from 

Tom :)

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Moderation in this case means unblocking messages that have been automatically 
blocked.  It's quite the opposite of the normal meaning i think.  Quite a lot 
of people are needed.  

So far the only ones i have seen were blocked due to the person not subscribing 
to the list before posting.  It should be fairly easy to 
1.  copy&paste a standard message back to them to ask them to subscribe
2.  Unblock the message so that it does get to the list.  
3.  Move on to next message.  

It may help to be intelligent enough and have good enough understanding of 
English in order to spot and maybe solve problems but so far we haven't seen 
any of that.  Well, except one post was in non-English.  
Regards from 
Tom :)

the QA list is outside my scope - I don't even have administrative

As a general info:
moderators only receive emails from people who are not subscribed to the
list. If you are subscribed, your message goes right to the list without
being shown to a moderator.
(which I think, is a good thing - I don't want to censor anyones posts).

But I agree, top posting is an annoying thing. ;)

Which mailing lists are we looking at. QA mailing list needs a couple
moderators as well as our admin left the project recently. He passed on
duties to me but to be quite honest I  simply don't have the time and
haven't even looked at the admin priv. since he passed them along last week.

If QA is included in the call for moderators, fantastic, if not, I'd open
it up as well :) I will maintain admin rights and get familiar with them

Including you, there are 8 moderators now.


   how many are needed or does each do some specific job?


No specific numbers for that.
And in principle each does the same: look if a mail to the list, from 
some address not subscribed, if spam, junk, or a serious post. And in 
the letter case only, make sure that it reaches the list.



With all due thanks,


You're welcome.

Of course, it's totally fine to check mails even just once a day. 
There's no obligation to read everything in time - sorry if my mail

basically, so to have a kick start I can take any responsibility. I will
prefer development kind of work, but list moderating is also fine for me.
The only thing is I may take some time to understand things fully. If this

Re: [libreoffice-users] Seeking for list moderators

[Tom Davies]

Hi :)
Anne is;
1.   familiar with the list so she knows the volume of traffic to expect
2.   able to keep up with the traffic very well

3.   seems to enjoy being here
4.   probably ready to take on new challenges

Vaishnav is a recent arrival who looks like being well on his way to the devs 
list.  Being a moderator there might help him become more familiar with some of 
the issues there.  if the devs list doesn't need moderating then i apologise 
for not realising it's treated so differently from all the other lists.  

I am sure we have all been new and keen at projects and then rapidly realised 
we've taken on too much and had to back out and then felt guilty about that or 
felt like never having anything to do with them ever again.  Some call it "burn 
out".  From what i have seen so far i'd like to see Vaishnav stick around a 
long while and not suffer burn out too quickly.  There are factors he might not 
be aware of and it felt unfair to expect him to jump in without knowing things 
we thoroughly grok through having been here more than a day.  


Not all of us here can write code or do a patch.  The closest we get is writing 
macros and even that is waaay beyond most of us.  Should we encourage him to 
build on his talents and mix with like-minded people or chain him down here 
with commitments to this list?  


It's up to him of course 

Regards from 

Tom :)

That is your opinion. But I think it is very arrogant of you to decide for
someone else, where he would have more fun. Also discouraging someone from
a job that he's willing to take on, is counterproductive.

How do you come to this conclusion? What makes you think, that he would be
a good moderator for the dev list (which isn't even in our infrastructure)
but not for the users list?

What makes Anne perfect for this list? I have a very hard time reading (and
understanding) her posts. But I would never say, that she is (or is not)
perfect for the moderator job. How you write your posts has nothing to do
with moderating a message. It is either accepting or rejecting an email
from someone else for the list. And being able to figure out, if an email
is spam or not (everything that comes from *mail.ru often is).


Honestly, I was put off by your reply to RD Vaishnav's generous offer. We
do need more moderators on the different lists...

Hi :)
That is a very generous offer but i suspect you would have more fun and be more 
useful in other areas of the project!!  


You are new to the project and really should keep your options open for a bit 
longer.  Perhaps just become  more familiar with the types of posts that do get 
to this list.  It's an extremely high-traffic list so it's going to need a LOT 
of people.  For the project as a whole i think it would be better if you could 
be a moderator for the Devs Mailing List, not the Users List!  


On the other hand i think Anne and others that have been here a while would be 
perfect for this list
