Moderation will be done by a specific team. But moderation is not the same as on a forum, this is more "spam filtering". For example, me and others who are de facto moderator on current installation ( the one @zarb.org ) receive each morning a mail saying something like this ( real example, with edited email ) : ======================== From: spam@gmail on Tue Feb 8 17:09:45 2011 Subject: (REPLY IF YOU ARE INTRESTED!!! (TSUNAMI DISASTER IN INDONESIA ). Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list From: spam@live on Tue Feb 8 19:49:40 2011 Subject: Anuncie totalmente gr?tis! Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list From: spam@tiscali on Tue Feb 8 22:10:48 2011 Subject: Finanziamenti e affari on-line Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list From: xxx@xxx on Thu Feb 10 12:05:39 2011 Subject: Re: [Mageia-discuss] Contributing Howto : need help Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list ======================== This was for the mageia-discuss ml 1 week ago. Then we usually go to the web interface, and check "this is spam, this is spam, this is not spam" ( or the checkbox "all of this is spam" + "erase" ). Obviously, the 3 first one are unwanted mail, and the 4th is not. The goal is to redirect when someone post to a restricted ml, or when someone use a wrong address, or when a spam evades our spam filter. So the plan at the new server is to have a team for moderation of all lists, not just for 1. We could have done the regular way, with different admin for each list. But that would have been more complex ( ie, have to keep track of who is doing moderation of what, and manage the fact that some people will leave and some will appear, will take holidays, etc ), and so would have required more work. It is simpler to have 1 team of 3/4 people to take care of the lists rather than 10 individuals taking care of each a different lists. And also have the same set of admin on all ml, so the setup is more resilient ( ie, if I go to a place without internet for 1 week, another admin can still connect and change settings, etc ). -- Michael Scherer
