Hi all and sundry :-)
ROSCO: Probably your email made it into my spam folder, sorry! I haven't read
such an email and therefore don't know what happened, and whether I would have
endorsed it beforehand or not. Well, seems that we all survived unscathed...
Dave: It's definitely fine by me having you with global curatorship privileges,
same with Dan. I trust you enough to take responsibility for it. I have revised
the whole list of curators some time ago and it should be relatively up-to-date.
As for Todd and Suz still being on that list: I haven't heard from them for some
time past and since I have a feeling that the changeover isn't completed
(trademark issues + some unspecified limitations and wishes Suz mentioned
earlier) I better do not blocking Todd and Suz out from their site.
So for reference:
Jerry: Admin for technical issues (and he's doing good, even answering the phone
in the middle of the night on weekends :-). Responsible for Hardware, Server
Config, NNTP and Perl issues
Me: Admin for organizational things, structure & design. HTML, CSS, PHP.
Dan & Dave: Able to do s.th., helped a lot in the past (Thanks!!) but no one has
to force them to do something specific.
Todd & Suz: Still able to do anything just like before the change, but both
officially retired.
Hope that lightened things a little bit,
Leg Godt!
Rene
PS: I read about the "Traffic" Link on the homepage, will add this later this
week!
