I might take you up on that. Can you forward to me, offlist, a copy of
one day's output?

My line of thinking is that the more volunteers we have working on admin
tasks, the easier it is on each. More generally, I'd like to have some
mechanism in place for knowing when issues arise, so that I can put a
notice up on the website, for example if someone notices they aren't
getting any list traffic, they can check the website, and see that we're
working on a block issue, or whatever.
