[cabfpub] Ballot 213 - Revocation Timeline Extension

I still don’t see the value of bastardizing the CAB Forum questions list to do something that the Mozilla mailing list already does perfectly.  Why use a brand new process when a good one already exists?  Unless, there’s a good reason for double transparency (Mozilla plus a new mailing list) I’d like to keep the ballot as already proposed if people are willing to endorse.

I’m currently responding to questions as best I can. We haven’t had much volume on that list though.

This is precisely how the Forum operates its lists – questions@ in particular, but all the others as well. And while Eddy Nigg was the long-time questions@ list admin, there is currently no one who really owns the task of monitoring the questions list in a timely fashion (and I suspect that timely moderation is quite important for this new list that’s being proposed). I am currently doing a lot of the moderation but am transitioning the work to Ben, which I believe supports the point that Gerv is making.

 

Thanks,

 

Wayne

Mailing lists don't manage themselves. Says someone who manages six and
has to clear the spam queues daily.

 

So your concern is a message being held for moderation and requiring manual review?

 

I do not believe that's not been a concern of any Forum mailing list to date, because that's now how the Forum has operated its mailing lists.

 

Would that address your concern?
