Modevents -- Moderation events on OpenISO working-group mailing-lists
About Modevents	English (USA)
The "welcome messages" for the email mailing lists implementing the OpenISO.org "Working Groups" make clear that behavior such as rudeness which is disruptive of fact-oriented discussion is not considered acceptable, and will result in the transgressor "being moderated" (i.e. the mailing list system would hold future postings from them for checking and manual approval by a "moderator" who will check that the postings are ---in his or her reasonable judgement--- not rude or otherwise disruptive). In order to prevent such moderation from resulting in a severe loss of transparency and accountability, this modevents mailing list is used for informing anyone who might be interested about "moderation events" (such as someone being added to the list of people whose postings will be help for moderation, or a posting being rejected). This list can also be used for complaints/discussion/rants/whatever about such modevents. There is no moderation of this mailing list; participants are expected to know how to use killfiles or equivalent blackholing techniques. The point of this set-up is to ensure that rude people and other trouble-makers are not able to prevent the Working-Group mailing lists from fullfilling their function. To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the Modevents Archives.
