Reposted to this group. What are the requirements? Can you do it from home? What would the job duties be? How much time would it take? Can you do it from any computer? Thank you for any information. Greg Ro http://ilias.ca/blog/2005/04/history-of-mozilla-newsgroups.html The current situation: When the Mozilla Foundation was created in July of 2003, the domains had to be moved to their own servers. This includes news.mozilla.org. The problem is that they don't have the resources to set up the server, create the new newsgroups, work out a transition plan, and maintain the server. Mozilla is currently looking for a volunteer news administrator to do that. Until that happens, all the netscape.public.mozilla.* usenet newsgroups are for development discussion, and the user support newsgroups are on a secure server, not propagated to usenet.
