Here is the quote from IRC:

10:19:02  __20h__ | Good day.
10:19:29  __20h__ | Is this the right IRC channel for questions about mailinglists on lists.alioth.debian.org?
10:19:38  __20h__ | I couldn't find any other irc channel fitting.
10:20:26 formorer | you can ask.
10:20:44  __20h__ | I am talking about https://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gopher-project
10:20:57  __20h__ | The admin of this ML, John Goerzen, has retired some years ago.
10:21:03  __20h__ | He sadly left the moderation bit on.
10:21:43  __20h__ | We now have the discussion on the ML how to solve this. The solution we came up with is the set the
                  | admin list to the active users of the mailinglist and thus solve the moderation bit problem and
                  | have backup in the future.
10:22:00  __20h__ | What would be the procedure to change those settings for the mailinglist?
10:22:23  __20h__ | You can see the discussion on the mailinglist, if you have access.
10:23:55 formorer | please define a/some new admin(s) for the project
10:24:18 formorer | then write a mail to formorer at debian.org, Cc to John Goerzen and ask for getting promoted to admin
                  | for the project
10:24:43  __20h__ | formorer, thank you very much. I will do this.
10:25:31 formorer | after some grace period for John I will give them admin permissions and add them as mailinglist
                  | admins

tl;dr:  Get  a list of people we want to add as admins, send the list to
formorer at debian.org, cc John Goerzen. If John does not respond in a giv‐
en time, the list of people will be setup as admins.

So  I  guess  your objection, barana, will be solved by the way formorer
wants to handle the issue.

My proposal for the admin list is:

Cameron Kaiser <spectre at floodgap.com>
Kim Holviala <kim at holviala.com>
"Bradley D. Thornton" <Bradley at NorthTech.US>
Christoph Lohmann <20h at r-36.net>

Anyone has objections?


Sincerely,

Christoph Lohmann
