There is some work going on to integrate a moderation tool into Whimsy.

Whimsy already has a Secretary mail tool which dynamically updates the
outstanding mail requests.
(PonyMail does not update mails dynamically).

Please join the discussion there.

Re: Web-tool for moderation

[Shane Curcuru <as...@shanecurcuru.org>]

As sebb noted: join the dev@whimsical.apache.org list:

  https://lists.apache.org/list.html?dev@whimsical.apache.org

The PMC works at whimsical.a.o because the live production site was
already at whimsy.a.o.  Most whimsy tools are in ruby; the live site
already supports several ruby host environments and has it's own set of
SVN checkouts of various repos as well as ties to ASF email services.

A shared moderation tool would be great.  There are three separate
things that we'd need volunteers for:

- Building the software.  Suck in mail somehow; present it; provide a UI
to check yes/no/spam etc. and include ASF logins for security.

- Maintaining the server.  This is historically the hardest thing - for
the time being, this is likely to be a volunteer-run service, meaning we
need people to keep any services running, and to ensure that any
problems in a moderation tool won't ever affect official Infra QOS type
services at all.

- Training and actually using the tool.  Hopefully, that would be easy
once we got a few people here using it.


- Shane, not able to help right now unfortunately
