I remember when, during the various ukram RFD debates/screaming fits, that
various exalted ones from the Great And Good of uk.* made a lot of shrill,
highfalutin noise about how ulm was the “gold standard” for usenet
moderation, with its unimpeachable moderator practices. Oh, there’s egg on
their faces now and no mistake. If they had any sense of shame they’d
resign from the Committee in disgrace.

You probably envy them their power and influence, such as it was (and I
don't suppose it was much). I'm sure they are quite unaware of any egg
on their faces.

It’s actually on topic for .management, tbh, Rog, as it concerns the
management of the hierarchy. It’s also on topic for .config too, now I
think about it, as it pertains to prior RFD group creation debates. Copied
in. Thanks for the heads up, mate!
