As a 977bis related note, would a formal definition of the moderation mechanism be out of scope? Personally, I am not 100% sure myself on how the process of moderated newsgroups work (don't actually use any myself). If it does not fit into 977bis, I would very much like to see it in the BCP. Also, if someone could send me a quick little writeup of it via private email (jack@wildbear.on.ca), I would be willing to pretty it up for whichever document it should fit into. regards, Jack >> It would also require the gateway to know, e.g., about the moderated >> status of anything it gateways. > >Hum, that's true.
