   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.
