listadmin now functional

[Christer Edwards <christer edwards gmail com>]

Great News!

Raymond Lu has managed to find a fix for the command-line mailman list
moderation tool, listadmin. I just spent the last two hours testing it
against all of our lists and it now works as expected. Please see
Bugzilla [1] for more information.

There are a few things to note that I thought I'd share with the group:

There is a small number of lists that don't seem to have *ever* been
moderated. 1500+ emails in the queue. I've made a list of these and
I'm going to try and contact the current moderators. Hopefully we can
get some additional volunteers to help moderate those lists.

As I went through each list queue I approved a few things here and
there but mostly I discarded the mail. Anything with a queue of over
100 and I globally-discarded.

I plan to write up a blog post with instructions on how to use and
configure listadmin. Hopefully this'll make life easier for all list
moderators in the future.

If anyone asks about old or surprise emails being approved, or
anything else "odd" about the mailing lists, it is likely due to my
work this afternoon.

Any other questions, let me know.

Christer
