In my previous message I didn't realize this point. If it it on a
different host and listhelpers don't have access to that host then it
makes no sense for us to be listed as an administrator. People would
send help requests to debbugs-submit-owner and we wouldn't be able to
help with it and would just forward those to you.
Whoever is listed as the -owner address should definitely have the
ability to administer things there.
For the moderator I am okay with adding the listhelper in as a
moderator and having the spamassassin robot discard messages
categorized as spam and have it do that for other sites. But I am
very cautious about allowing this globally. There is a lot of spam in
the world and I am focusing on the free software piece of it and not
the whole world in total. It would overwhelm the system. So in that
spirit debbugs.gnu.org is perfectly okay.
