[balug-admin] (forw) balug-talk post from michael.paoli@cal.berkeley.edu requires approval

[Rick Moen]

I haven't yet acted on this as mailing list moderator, but am inclined
to reject it because 1/2 megabyte is WAY too large for broadcast e-mail
sent to a mailing list.  (Note, also, that it exceeds the mailing list's
set size limit by a factor of ten.)  My view is that the sender should
put it on a Web/ftp site and post its URL, instead.  E.g., you could
attach it to a page on the BALUG wiki.

I recognise that you're only acting as a helpful intermediary, and
regret the inconvenience.
