On the face of it, I like this proposal. On the other hand, wouldn't it be |
| 13 |
better if we just had more active list moderators? That is, moderators who |
| 14 |
move problematic user's posts to moderated by default, and then withhold |
| 15 |
the specific posts if necessary? |

2. A new mailing list 'gentoo-expert' will be formed to provide |

I'm not sure this will be worth it. Who exactly do you think is the |
| 24 |
audience for this mailing list? What is the goal? How is it different from |
| 25 |
existing mailing lists? |
