It seemed to me that in the old days, posts were held until a moderator let them through. You had to be put on an approved list to have direct posting access. At least, that's how the posting delay for new subscribers was explained. As I undertand it, none of these messages would have made it through under that system.
I wouldn't call the current situation as "moderated" so much as "managed". Is there a reason that the developers list allows posting from non-subscribers? Or are these troubled addresses actually fully subscribed? -Paul "Shapira, Yoav" wrote: > > Hi, > The lists are moderated ;) Ignacio Ortega moderated them by himself for > a long time, and I've helped him out for the past year and change, to > the point where he's not really that active anymore ;) > > Moderating the lists is by and large an unglamorous, thankless job. > Like all ASF things, it's done on our free time without compensation. > > I don't check my email on weekends, hence the delayed response to this > particular one. > > >I am happy to help out with moderating this list.
