pgsql-odbc mailing list size limit

Michael pointed out that the pgsql-odbc mailing list has a fairly low
message size limit (40kB?). That's not quite enough for large patches.
Can someone bump it up to e.g 100 kB, please?

It was already 100000 for all lists; I bumped it up globally to 200kB.
For some lists it's even larger, for example pgsql-hackers has it at
1MB (actually 1000 kB).  If you think there's a need for a larger value
for pgsql-odbc, let me know.

Now, apparently pgsql-odbc does not have a list owner nor a moderator.
Who is supposed to be in charge of this list?

Thanks, that should be plenty.

Uh, no idea. What exactly does it mean to be a list owner?

By experience, usually the following:
- Manage registrations if they are not automated
- Filter manually messages that got stuck in the moderation queue for
a reason or another.

Few people request assistance to remove themselves from mailing lists,
but most of them do so to majordomo-owner (i.e. me, and I process them
immediately) not the list owner, so in practice list owners very rarely
get such requests.

Yes, this is more common.  Depending on the list you might get five spam
messages a day or so.  There are ways to mechanize things so that it
doesn't take too much time, in case you're concerned.

I have set myself as owner.
