Moderators wanted
I am an academic, like you. I get no benefit whatsoever from running this website and I cannot really afford to spend my days checking up contents contributed by members. I need persons to help out and take responsibility for a single item (for instance a single forum) and moderate it. Provided I give you the right access details, all this can be done *very* easily via a web-interface (no technical skills whatsoever involved). I do not really expect academics to find the time for this... but this should be a very nice opportunity for postgraduate students to create lasting relationships with other members of the community. If interested, please send me a (one page maximum) motivation letter to admin (at) lexicall.org.
