Last time I checked a "mediator" otherwise known to me as a communication manager, is only effective when he/she is recognized as authoritative by the participating group _and_ him/herself. As from other posts I read that the last part is the issue, well since this is a voluntary bunch of people with a slightly social democratic architecture you fall back on spokesman and that can be anybody, including or perhaps even especially you. The only thing that holds "you" theoretically back is "acknowledged authority by the participating group _and_ yourself" and of course the resource for "restricted" information. For the first part you got my vote, for second, well that should grow in time. -- mph -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
