We know about this one. We're still not sure what's causing it. I've had
a couple of people e-mail me directly, which is fine. Community members
that run into issues generally open a fedora-infra trac ticket.

The moderation queue in the version we're using is quite badly designed
- it's an upstream issue - that's how askbot is. All those posts aren't
actually waiting for moderation - even if a mod approves a post, it
still seems to show up in another mod's moderation queue :(

We informed upstream about this and they've apparently rewritten the
moderation part and made a new release. None of us have managed to find
the cycles to update the package and test it out in staging so that we
can update the production instance. It's high time I looked into it,
though - it's been on my todo list for quite a while.

I should be in there pretty much 24x7, so would randomuser. We don't
speak much in the channel - it's more to monitor the fedmsg logs. :)
