[wlug_org] List moderation

[Mark Foster]

For the record, I wouldn't mind.  Tony nailed it - I don't really mind
helping out but it would have to be very much by invitation, in case it be
seen as some sort of coup. :P

The key of course is that at least one of the moderators should be within
arms length of their emails at all times. The chances of double-moderation
(or triple!) are small enough that it doesnt happen _that_ frequently. If
theres anything particularly controvercial then you'd take an 'interim'
measure (or none at all) then bounce an email to -owner to vet the other
moderators.

Cheers
Mark.  (I would've replied last night, but had wireless issues...)
