<p class="MsoNormal">Ryan – with the exception of public@, all of our lists are configured to hold messages from non-members for moderation. Since not all CAs who would be subject to this requirement are members, I think the list you’re proposing would require
the same configuration. Access to moderate a list is available to any member who wants to volunteer. We get a decent amount of spam in the questions@ moderation queue despite having a basic spam filter in place.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">That is, you highlighted Eddy as the Admin - but that's the Bylaws Section 6.2. Gerv's concern seems to be about reviewing spam queues, approving messages, adding/removing subscribers. Is that something you (or Dean) find yourself using?
It's not something I've seen configured on any of the CA/B Forum Mailman instances (namely, hold for moderation), but is something that Mozilla has configured for their messages. That was the context and substance of what I was replying to Gerv about - that
is, there's a mailing-list-admin function (of which I believe only GoDaddy has administrative access to mailman), and then there's the procedural question (which I believe you're responding to).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">There's no new procedural requirements, so this is presumably only a question about the actual administrative function of the mail list.<o:p></o:p></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">As to Dean's point, the fact that we don't have a spam problem on the questions@ list, or hold for moderation, is why I don't think it's a substantive concern.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">This is precisely how the Forum operates its lists – questions@ in particular, but all the others as well. And while Eddy Nigg was the long-time questions@ list admin, there is
currently no one who really owns the task of monitoring the questions list in a timely fashion (and I suspect that timely moderation is quite important for this new list that’s being proposed). I am currently doing a lot of the moderation but am transitioning
the work to Ben, which I believe supports the point that Gerv is making.<o:p></o:p></p>
