When a new user sends their first email, Google Groups notifies each manager with an email, and shows the message as pending in a queue that managers can see at the GG web interface. I check that at least once a day, and even if I missed the GG notification, I would see the pending message in the queue. The queue is called "Manage pending messages for vim_dev" so I would expect it to include messages posted with the web interface, and I know that it includes messages sent via email. If someone's message does not appear after 12 hours I would expect that a manager has discarded it because it did not seem pertinent for a posting to the whole group. That does not apply to the message in question, which now seems to have appeared, so perhaps it was a GG glitch? I don't think it was a shortage of managers because messages that have not been approved sit in the pending queue and would be seen within a few hours.
