Anyway, [1] states that the DAM does have a backup (joey). Apparently, both haven't been able to do any NM processing for the past six weeks. Might it be possible to replace the single-point-of-failure DAM with a Peer Review system? I.e., some DDs (the existing AMs?) are tasked with checking the AM reports; three(?) YES votes approves the new maintainer, one NO vote (with justification please...) relegates them to the DAM. If people think this is a good idea, I am willing, and actually have the time, to extend the NM pages to implement this.
