Boost Moderators
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
The Boost moderators are [Dave Abrahams](/users/people/dave_abrahams.html), Carl
|
|
Daniel, [Beman
|
|
Dawes](/users/people/beman_dawes.html), [Jeff
|
|
Garland](/users/people/jeff_garland.html), [Doug
|
|
Gregor](/users/people/doug_gregor.html), and [John
|
|
Maddock](/users/people/john_maddock.html). You can reach the moderators at [boost-owner@lists.boost.org](mailto:boost-owner@lists.boost.org).
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note:** The boost moderators do not moderate any
|
|
mailing lists other than the main Boost developers' list. For
|
|
example, the boost-users list moderators are at [boost-users-owner@lists.boost.org](mailto:boost-users-owner@lists.boost.org).
|
|
The moderators of [every other
|
|
Boost list](/community/groups.html) can be reached through its home page.

Moderator Functions
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Monitor the mailing list to ensure dialog remains within
|
|
the acceptable boundaries set by the [discussion policy](/community/policy.html). When
|
|
discussion strays, use private email to gently remind,
|
|
strongly rebuke, or outright ban, as the situation
|
|
demands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Approve the initial postings of new (and thus still
|
|
moderated) members, and move members to the "Group Policy"
|
|
posting status.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Administer the internal operations of the Boost web site,
|
|
the main Boost mailing list, the CVS repository, and other
|
|
Boost administrative machinery.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Act as an executive committee overseeing important
|
|
administrative and policy decisions. Boost is a zero-budget
|
|
organization with no income and no expenses, so that
|
|
eliminates the need for most management. Technical decisions
|
|
are worked out on the mailing list. The moderators handle the
|
|
few remaining decisions that need a definite answer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Beyond the purely administrative duties, work to keep the
|
|
Boost community vibrant and alive. That may be as simple as
|
|
saying "thank you" to an individual member, or as complex as
|
|
starting some major new initiative. Do whatever it
|
|
takes!
