Reaching the seam-dev mailing list is a nightmare (Second try)

(Second try..)

Hello,

I don't know if moderators and the list manager(s) are aware of this,
but this is a nightmare to post a message to the mailing list.

Almost none of my message have reached the list on the first post, and
some never reach it after the third 3 tentative. For those I gave up (!)

I understand that this list has to be moderated and that moderators
receives tons of spam and it's hard to filter messages, that people are
busy doing more important things etc etc

You can not image the amount of frustration this generates for a newly
committer like me that need, from time to time, advises on how to act
regarding the code before committing and potentially break things, or
simply ask a questions that are obviously not of the domain of the
general forum (Like fixing the build or the WiKi).

I don't  know if they are other means to ask dev-related questions, but
as-is, the seam-dev list is not an answer, at least for "external"
people like me as most of the message never reach the list.

I hope this message will reach people that can act on this. If not ill
re- post it 3 times, no more.

Thanks for your time.

Denis Forveille

You got through on the first try Denis, you don't need to keep reposting
this.

It's worth pointing out, because of the moderation, you may see a  
delay in your post appearing, as a moderator is not available at that  
time.

If your message appears to have been overlooked, please contact me,  
Shane or Norman.

If you think your message has not made it through (like Denis did  
here) - check http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/seam-dev/ and you can  
see the archive.

So to clarify, if I new person posts to the list (and what they post is legitimate), no future messages should be moderated, right? So Denis should never see a delay again.

Yes, assuming that the person who moderates the post checks accept for  
both this message, and one of "clear this members moderate flag" or  
"add this sender to the accepts filter". And, of course, this is all  
based on the address you use to post.
