Just want to add my voice to support what Laurent said.

In my observation many opensolaris contributors that employed by Sun
just do not appreciate enough how rough can the user experience of
other opensolaris contributors be at times. Only because they do not
have access to Sun corporate resources. (email  @sun.com for example).
Making various shortcuts for Sun employees makes no good to community
in general. It does, however, help alienate non-Sun-employed
("external" as people at Sun call them [really pisses me off])
contributors.

Well, it seems that the answer is that Sun has decided to downgrade all list administrators to moderator status, and take admin control directly.

In 2004, when we accepted Sun's offer to migrate our mailing list to their system, we got a written warranty that this would never happen.

I'm both angered and deeply disappointed by that move. I can only hope it's only a technical decision that will be reversed soon, and be discussed as it should, openly.

For now, it's time to go to bed for me.

Laurent
