Re: 48-hour Call for Consensus (CfC): Set up moderated public subscription to ARIA working list,

I would be OK with moderating nonmember posts.

The problem with moderating, of course, is that someone has to be tasked
with that chore. And, that someone needs a backup person when they're on
vacation, or sick, etc. And, we can't expect them to clear (or deny)
posts by the minute --- so how often would we expect such to occur?
Daily? Weekly?

If you review the minutes from yesterday's ARIA call, you'll find the
discussion was concerned to make it as easy as possible to participate
in ARIA development. However, "easy as possible" needs to meet certain
commitments, and we need those commitments on record. These include the
good behavior and agreement to W3C RAND.

PS: The HTML-A11Y Task Force is moderating nonmember posts. It's been a
low incidence chore, fortunately.
