X-BeenThere: bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Bitcoin Development Discussion List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 22 Oct 2015 01:29:25 -0000 Hi all, We aim to make the list more contentful and productive; to get devs to resubscribe we need to maximize high-value interactions. - Currently 5 moderators. BtcDrak, me, G1lius, Kanzure and Johnathan. As far as I know we're entirely unconnected, and we cover Asia/Europe/US. - Moderation will last 3 months. Then we'll have an unmoderated on-list discussion as to whether it should continue, or change. - Appeals for/against moderation decisions should be directed to Jeff, who will have final say. General moderation feedback just send to me. - All rejected posts will be forwarded to a list for public viewing: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev-moderation/ - Everyone starts moderated, and the mod bit gets cleared as they post. It gets set again if someone notices or reports a violation. - Moderation rules: - No offensive posts, no personal attacks. - Posts must concern the near-term development of the bitcoin core code or bitcoin protocol. - Posts must contribute to bitcoin development. - Generally encouraged: patches, notification of pull requests, BIP proposals, academic paper announcements. And discussions that follow. - Generally discouraged: shower thoughts, wild speculation, jokes, +1s, non-technical bitcoin issues, rehashing settled topics without new data, moderation concerns. - Detailed patch discussion generally better on the GitHub PR. - Meta-discussion is better on bitcoin-discuss: https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-discuss - We will make mistakes, we are human, so please be patient. Your friendly moderators.
