What it's for:  A place for moderators to exchange tips, tricks, and
information regarding moderation of Fidonet echoes and other forums.

Any and all discussion regarding the management and moderation of a Fidonet
conference is welcome.

Users and point operators must request permission to post in this echomail
conference, either via routed netmail, or via the sysop hosting the user or
point system.

Permission will be granted to recognized moderators of Fidonet echomail
conferences who are not themselves the operator of a system listed in the
Fidonet nodelist.

The conference may be made available as read only to all other points and
users.

Moderators who are not Fidonet system operators may send email to
mark.lewis@ftn.wpusa.dynip.com with a subject line indicating that the
message is requesting write privileges in this conference. Parties
requesting access via email must state which listed Fidonet system they
will be using to post in the conference, or a point address derived from
a listed Fidonet system. When permission to post is approved it will be
posted in the echo, and routed netmail sent to the sysop hosting the
requester. IF an individual requesting posting privileges is not known
to the moderator his/her request will be conveyed to the echo for the
purpose of seeking additional information from echo participants.

The usual rules of Fidonet echomail apply. These include the use of real
names, proper displaying of address and other information on messages
originating from your system, etc.

Gateways to/from other networks must be approved by users of the conference.
IF approved any gateway must work in both directions. The operator of
any approved gate is responsible for all traffic entering the echo
through that gateway.

Moderation issues will be handled by Fidonet netmail only.

OTher than that, come on in, pull up a chair!  Thanks for participating
in the Fidonet echomods conference.
