Thread: I still do not have moderation on pgsql-announce & cannot send out 9.1 RC1 announcement

WWW,

As I brought up a *month* ago on this list, I do not have the permission to moderate messages on pgsql-announce.  I am
supposedto have it.
 

As a result, the 9.1 RC1 announcement is sitting in the approval queue for -announce.

Who has the ability to fix the pgsql-announce list admins?  Surely someone on -WWW must have this ability?  Or is the
listjust broken?
 

It is critical that this be fixed before 9.1 final.  

To repeat details from last month, I can log in to the admin web interface for pgsql-announce, but when I access the
moderationpage I get:
 

Showtokens error:  
Your request was denied.

An administrative password is required to use the showtokens command.

Please use the "help admin_passwords" command to see an introduction
to administrative passwords.

Administrative passwords may have insufficient privileges if the
access_password_override setting is turned off.  Please use the
"help configset_access_password_override" command for more details.

... poking around the interface, I seem to have an administrative login, but with no ability to actually change any
settings.

I just approved it (and rejected the duplicate and the spam)

I think I only need Josh to send me a password.
