Hi Adam -- The past practice (at least, what Thomas Chung had me do) has been for the group admins (effectively, the editors, you and I) to follow up with these folks, ask them to join this list and introduce themselves here, and how they would like to contribute to the Fedora News team. I'm currently on vacation this week so haven't done this for the new people this week. We could start out by inviting them to the list. There are a number of people who have applied for group membership with whom we have followed up with but nothing came of this, so one task we could do is to retrospectively go through all of the outstanding group requests and ask these folks if they now would like to become active with the group. Those that don't respond, we can delete. I have left these membership requests open in the hopes that folks might want to become active, but it seems like a good idea to decision them. - pascal ________________________________________ From: fedora-news-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [fedora-news-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Adam Williamson [awilliam@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2009 10:56 PM To: fedora-news-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: new applicants I've seen a couple of new applicants for the news list sitting in FAS. Do we have a process for finding out what's going on there, seeing if they're just spam accounts or what? Just wanted to check whether someone's already doing something about that. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ Fedora-news-list mailing list Fedora-news-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-news-list _______________________________________________ Fedora-news-list mailing list Fedora-news-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-news-list
