I'm the one that will need a policy the most. I'm a very hardcore, dictator-like moderator; known to be so. Some of the stuff people saw me write, more than one, on lists I moderate: - - "My list, my rules" - - "You right to express yourself is subjected to my right to repress" - - "Since when is this a democracy ?" which is all very well (and more than once welcome) on several places, but definitively not on a CentOS list. That is why, supposing I'll be moderating the pt_BR (or simply pt) list, I'll need the rules. Badly. Gotta tell you the truth. I don't ENJOY being a moderator, taking responsibilities and all that. I do it because a lists needs a moderator, and even thou I don't enjoy it, I'm willing to, which is more than you can say for most subscribers :( I do, on the other hand, love a well organized and well moderated list. So I try to do my part. > But yes, I think that this is a very good idea. I myself am trying to > "man" a german speaking list for CentOS.
