It really shouldn't be 24 hours. Our strategy was to have a few moderators in different timezones to cover sleep shifts or other disruptions of service. Evidently this has not been adequate. > Jonas Schnelli proposed: "I propose that we add more moderators to > shorten the moderation lag which has been between >24h, thus makes > debates cumbersome" Makes sense. I'll go find a few people. > Beside this I had the idea of people who already contributed n e-mails > to the mailing list don't need an approval for any e-mail anymore (Where > n is the number of previous e-mails). Does this exists already? There is an active software vulnerability which requires moderation to be enabled. This version of mailman is unmaintained, and Linux Foundation is migrating away from or abandoning the email protocol so they are less willing to do backend infrastructure work. This manifests in other ways, like downtime, but also weird situations like missing emails that never hit the moderation queue. I get pings from different people about two times a year where they report an email that they think I missed, but in fact it never hit the moderation queue at all. Email clearly isn't the greatest protocol. - Bryan http://heybryan.org/ 1 512 203 0507 _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
