As planned, this is the three month review[1]: discussion of how moderation should change is encouraged in this thread. First, thanks to everyone for the restraint shown in sending (and responding to!) inflammatory or sand-in-the-gears mails, and being tolerant with our mistakes and variances in moderation. The only changes we made to the plan so far: 1) We've stopped clearing the "needs mod" bit after first posts, and 2) Trivially answerable emails or proposals have been answered in the reject message itself. You can see almost all (there was some lossage) rejects at: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev-moderation/ So, what should moderation look like from now on? - Stop moderating altogether? - Moderate more/less harshly? - Use a different method/criteria for moderation? - Add/remove moderators? - Other improvements? Thanks, Rusty. [1] http://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2015-October/011591.html
