basically moderation of linux-audio-announce and helping people who have 
problems with their accounts. the latter has become a great problem 
lately, because the admin adresses are being drowned in spam :(

but basically it's all about handling mailman, which has a neat and 
friendly web interface. but some extra effort spent on spam filtering 
would certainly ease the job in the long run...

cool. the old page plain sucks, if you want to take over, that's great.
send me an ssh key in a private mail if you want. however i need to talk 
to ico bukvic before giving somebody access, since he owns the box...
