While perhaps a good idea, honestly the only things to go through
sysadmin on a regular basis are system notifications from scripts
(just check the archives). To assume that sysadmin is any more
functional than the rest of evolt.org would be an overstatement. I
just point this out as it has been mentioned in the past that
sysadmin, as a group, "just works".
My assumption on evolt.org's floundering due to lack of leadership has
been based on past history. How much has evolt.org advanced since
2002? FFS, *we* couldn't even pick a winner of the "design contest"
and implement it. Most projects have at the very least a benevolent
dictator and people that are willing to follow that person.
Anyway, I don't mean to de-rail the current efforts. I'm going back
to re-arranging the deck chairs.
