Developers have CVS access; take the ebuild quiz and you're a developer, |
| 16 |
take the staff quiz (the eight-question quiz some mods apparently don't |
| 17 |
like for whatever bizarre reason...) and you're staff |
| 18 |
|

Overall I'd say I think the best course of action is for the forum |
| 20 |
admins & whatever high-level executive decision making moderators to |
| 21 |
become staff and for the forums to become a valid (sub)project, then |
| 22 |
they can add their other folks as needed. I don't see any need for the |
| 23 |
'all or nothing' approach. Frankly I don't see any harm in people not |
| 24 |
being totally clear on which mods are "staff" and which aren't (what |
| 25 |
practical difference does it make?) |
