Krishna, I believe I have already informed you last year that the mailing list gets cleared at least once a week, and that has been largely happening since the list was founded by hpnadig. If you personally wish to volunteer as a moderator or know someone who wishes to do so, then please state

Dear all, I am one of the list admins of the India list and have been rather inactive for sometime now. If there is an effort at getting new admins, I am happy to step down. Regards, Prashanth > On 06-Aug-2018, at 11:43 PM, Theo10011 wrote: > > I don't see any mails from you in my inbox.

I don't see any mails from you in my inbox. There was just a single email held on the Delhi list. From Abhinav. I explained to Yohann and Subha more than a few times. The mails keep getting held up because the senders aren't member of the list. Please join the list first. T On Mon, Jul 30, 2018

Hi, Recently, there was a major subscription attack to all the mailing lists. Email ids from aol and yahoo were used to subscribe in bulk. Probably, during the corrective measures, this kind of problem might have occurred. In case of any posting issues, raising them to the list admins usually

Hello, Please you let me know who reported problems with subscription? Also, the mailing list rule is that non-subscribers cannot post. Posters have to subscribe to the list to send their message to the rest of the subscribers. The occasional mail that gets caught in the filter is cleared on a

A discussion on Meta would be better. We all have to be a bit careful with the wording as some might feel bad if their names are called publicly for their inactivity. Those who are interested to take the moderator role should ideally self-nominate and others can up/downvote and share views

I agree with Yohann and Dhaval's suggestion, and also the nominations. Yes, as Abhinav mentioned, this problem of inactive list admins/moderators exists on many of Indian regional mailing lists as well. I've faced issues in the past while posting to some Indic-language mailing lists. So we can

Nice initiative Subha, For the other suggestions that are floating in, I would recommend not to suggest/nominate third parties. Let individuals nominate themselves for it to be more productive adminship. A need of gender balance could be there but list adminship simply doesn't require it, so
