Re: Who moderates users-de@openoffice.apache.org?

[Dr. Michael Stehmann]

Hello Jörg,

you are so right.

As I remember, you were also a (co-)moderator in the past. But you resigned.

Do you want to do this job another time?

Kind regards
Michael

I'm one of the moderators of users-de. IMO I'm not the only one.

I have gotten some of the spam postings in the past and

rejected them.

But it seems so, I got not all.

There should be a ban for some email addresses, but I'm busy at the
moment. Because it's not trivial it would take some time.

There was no

need for a ban in past. So it would be the first time for

me to do such

a job.

I've tried to unsubscribe the mail address. But maybe it was not
successful as I'm not a moderator for that list.

BTW:
It's the default contact address from a German bank. IMHO it
is obvious
that this is not really used for sending / getting mails
about OpenOffice.

Thank you for recognising the situation. I wrote all this to Michael by PM and 
got only general words in reply and no solution.

Yes, I understand if Michael doesn't have time, but the problems of the lack of 
moderation of "users...@openoffice.apache.org" have existed for years, and for 
years I have been pointing it out again and again, because I don't understand why 
something that concerns us all is not also something where everyone's opinion should 
count.

What is the issue?
I think it's normal to run a mailing list the way mailing lists are normally 
run, which is that participants have to register. Where this is not respected, 
the mailing list is ineffective for all concerned (both questioners and 
helpers).
I'm not saying that there shouldn't be exceptions sometimes, but that should be 
limited to individual cases and not become the norm.
