correct!

For hosting, would the wabachan distributed model be feasible or desirable?

The only moderation I've really noticed is spam deletion and spamlist updates. If more mods are needed I'd be willing to step up. I thought the admins were more inclined to picking out people than take applicants.

I can also do housekeeping like upgrading to new versions of kareha.
