Dear all,<br>
<br>
We have four administrators of the mailing list, but none of them are<br>
active contributors to the team or the mailing list, so it would be<br>
good to get some new administrators.<br>
<br>
Mailing list administration is pretty easy, the web interface is<br>
pretty self-explanatory. The main job is really just to process<br>
pending requests from people posting to the list who are not<br>
subscribed - those emails get held in a queue. 95% of them are spam,<br>
but occasionally there are emails which need to be approved.<br>
<br>
Is anyone willing to take this on?<br>
<br>
Matt<br>
