# Kent Landfield keeps trying to get something going. It's a big task, as
# you've guessed -- as big as setting the current system up in the first
# place was, plus all the additions of the ensuing years. The trouble is, I
# think, that the person who redesigns the moderation routine needs specs and
# help from someone who's done it and knows what it should accomplish. That
# brings us right back where we started.

Or I need to do the job to see what it is that needs to be done to do it
right. I have volunteered to be a moderator. I think I probably have
a real good handle on the process. :-) Mostly it's a matter of tools. I
already know rkive well (since I wrote it). ;-) We need to get the backlog
out of the way and then deal with creating a new approach to it that is
easier to use. The backlog is the priority now.

# Of course, redoing the mechanism so the learning curve wasn't so steep
# would let the moderators bring in new volunteers with a much lower time
# investment, which would certainly be a good thing.

Step 2. Right now we need to just get an active moderator or two. I'm
here and ready if needed...
