She is welcome to denigrate the Apache Board. In fact, if you go back and read the Tweets she was originally doing so to DataStax. That said, the whole premise is that this is a conversation happening on Twitter where potentially knowledge could be gained about *Apache* Cassandra. You know, the project here at the ASF? And not somewhere else? Yet again, here we are at the 6th email, and the 2 second task to moderate a message through that could enable a conversation to be had on the *Apache* lists rather than Twitter still remains not being had here. I have been subscribed to dev@cassandra for months. This is not a high volume list. AT ALL. Yet you act like it's volunteer time that's preventing moderating a message through in 12 hours. Instead of asking the real question - are there enough moderators for the list in different timezones that can appropriately ensure that conversation happens on the list? Is that your goal? Are you on the Apache Cassandra PMC? Do you think it's healthy to send emails trying to talk shit instead of simply moderating messages through that could ground the conversation here at the ASF? Clearly per your snark and email you are pleased with Kelly "making the board look bad" [sic] on Twitter. Why not increase the visibility of making the board look bad and do so here on the official list for the project? Or is Twitter the official list now? Go ahead, I'll wait. > On 4 November 2016 at 16:44, Chris Mattmann <mattm...@apache.org> wrote: > > > So seriously, we're going to send now 4 emails talking about what a user > > of Apache Cassandra and possible community member could have done right or > > better or sooner, or that there is no time limit to moderating shit when it > > could have been as simple as literally sending a confirmation email to > > moderate it through?
