Yes, sorry about that. Some of us have to work for a living, and the idno
lists are a decidedly part-time activity at the moment :)

It's not at all clear to me exactly what happened here, but I have taken
some precautions to make sure it doesn't happen again.

I don't propose to do any testing right now, since I imagine most people
are fed up with the number of posts on the "low-volume" announcement list
right now... Next time Joop (or anybody else) submits a message to the
announce list it will come to me, and I will supervise its release.

Once I'm convinced everything is working normally, I will release
moderation back to Joop.

This may hold up posts to the announcement-only list slightly, but I think
it's probably worth it :)

Thanks for your patience,

Joe
