Ran moderator queue

[Owen Taylor]

The recent flood of messages came from me running the moderator queue
for the gnome-bugsquad list (my mail about emblems was held for
being 40k, so I figured I'd approve it myself...)

It doesn't look like the list is actively moderated at this point;
if someone wants to volunteer to take list ownership over from
Kjartan, I'll switch the configuration.

Hey Owen :)

Could you see whether there was enough SPAM in the Queue so that it's
worth being moderated?

I'll take that job :)

I wonder if there are statistics out there to see which Queue has how
many messages in the Queue. That might help to identify such stalls earlier.

Cheers,

There was quite a bit of spam getting through the overall filters, yes.
On the order of an item every 1-2 days.

Generally speaking, lists have to be either moderated for non-member
postings, or have closed archives - it's not OK to have spam sitting in
public archives. If a list isn't getting some spam yet it's just a
matter of time.

I've made you and Andre list admins. See private mail, you can sort out
the details between you.

I don't think we have any such tool, no. Would be nice.

There's also the GNOME moderator project where a bunch of lists get
collectively moderated, but I don't the exact details or how well that
is working at the moment.
