OK, then, what must you have to be able to moderate comp.binaries.amiga?

I could do it, I think.  I have a fairly dependable net-connection, I have
access to tape storage, and I have a strong desire to keep the stuff moving.
On the Amiga side, I have a 1 meg A500 with NEC multisysnc and two drives.
I'd store the files on my Sun workstation (plenty of room, besides, I can get
more space if need be.)

I've been on the net for about a year and I'm President of a local user group

I have a Manx C compiler (not the latest version, yet) but no lattice, so I
don't think I could handle comp.sources.

Comments, flames, advice all welcome.  Thanks.
