Default Looks like Carol has had yet another temper tantrum...and trashed the groups once again

I doubt Jan and all the other moderators will even bother replying to
her antics.

did you know it has taken them more than three month to figure out how
to exclude her in their moderation policy?


We haven't been trying to exclude anyone. And while you might be
technically correct about the three months figure, you've got to
remember that during that time was the Christmas/New Year's holiday
season. We've been trying to hash out some kind of moderation policy
and charter. You've got to remember that everyone involved does so on
a strictly voluntary basis too. Hey -- I've got plenty of excuses for
why this isn't done yet -- don't even get me started.

But more to the point as to when rpm might be running, there are
exactly two software packages that come anywhere close to what we want
to do. Out of this vast selection, we have pretty much decided on the
one and are trying to get it configured, get it a host machine and
newsfeed, that sort of stuff. Then we want to run a few "trial" posts
through it so that the moderaters know how to use the system and feel
comfortable with it. I understand things happen pretty fast once the
final discussion is finished. We want to have all our "ducks in line"
when that happens. I'm just guessing, but from where I sit early
March sounds like a pretty reasonable guess for when rpm ought to be
up and running.
