We're talking about 3 people in the worst case. I don't know how long |
| 8 |
they have been inactive, so I assume we have 3 people who don't want to |
| 9 |
take the quiz. GLEP 38 says: |

|
| 11 |
"As moderators are pretty much exposed to the public (forums users, but |
| 12 |
also used as contact person for requests that should go to the PR |
| 13 |
department or the trustees) they need to have some knowledge about |
| 14 |
Gentoo's internal structure as well as contact to the other developers." |

I absolutely agree with this, and that's exactly what the staff quiz is |
| 17 |
for. The quiz has 8 questions, they're all quite easy. For those |
| 18 |
moderators who have been moderating for years, it shouldn't take longer |
| 19 |
than 15 minutes. |

One argument I heard was, that it's not the quiz which is too hard, but |
| 22 |
people think it's not okay to force moderators to take it to continue |
| 23 |
their work. I partly agree with this too, I know, the quiz is also (but |
| 24 |
still not only!) bureaucracy, but looking at this thread it seems to be |
| 25 |
much less bureaucracy compared to this discussion. To solve this |
| 26 |
problem, it will take 3 people to spend 15 minutes on a quiz they don't |
| 27 |
like. Or it will take many more hours to discuss it over and over again. |

Sorry, but this looks a bit ridiculous to me. |
