[Platform] Recent rejected postings

[Merelice]

Dear Platform Committee,

There are now enough members of this committee that someone should be
willing to administer this list. As he said, Jamie administers quite a few
lists and that number should gradually be reduced as committees get active.

Jamie, You use the terms "moderate" and "administer." Are they different?
Could you do a brief explanation of what is involved? I'm not sure whether I
fit one or both roles for the Rainbow list and the AdCom list, but I can
tell people that it is not heavy-duty work.

Please offer your services.

Merelice

PS: When emailing one of the party lists, if you have more than 3
recipients, your email will get rejected.
