c) does the article get published directly or is it moderated?

Articles submitted by non-admins remain in unpublished state unless someone with publishing rights (e.g. moderator or admin) approves.


d) how does a registered user deactivate / delete own account?

It wasn't enabled for registered users. I have activated it.

Users can cancel their own account through My Account -> Edit -> Cancel Account


e) how does a registered user remove the files uploaded into the
user's space on the server?

For uploads to submission forms, like the poster submission forms contact admins. For attachments etc.:

My Account -> File Browser (tab)


f) who other than the user had edit access to articles posted?

Admins and Moderators. Current list include: Debamitro, Priyanka, Satabdi, Tarashish, Mani and me.


It is same as for GLUG-Cal
See Site License: a, b : user needs to specify.


Users are allowed to contribute directly preferably after discussion
on mail list: c
But no guide in place.:

There must be a way as some did: d
e: must request admin
f: admins


Regarding f, there is a "moderator" role as well, which can be given to volunteers for permissions with adding/editing/deleting content only. They will not be able to perform other administrative activities.

Cheers.
