[Seattle-editorial] Proposal: Who are active editorial members?

FYI, regarding bounce information:

The bounce information is actually pretty good. Members get notified 
about once a week; you can read about the basics here:

http://www.esosoft.com/support/mailinglist/mailman/bounce.html

I wouldn't sweat it much. I sent an email to the current members who 
were recently bounced just in case.


Regarding the active list, and a meeting -- I think this is a good idea.

I would also support quick-and-dirty selection of articles as a 
front-page turnover assist -- provided we choose articles that have 
"hook" first paragraphs and can then link to the rest of the article.

I wish we were on a better codebase so this would be a point-and-click 
operation....
