This is a followup to this discussion:
Discussion about changing moderators
I talked with Henri about this & he suggested this was a good idea since he has less & less time to devote to being the moderator. I offered to organize the discussion & commicate the results to him. To that end I have come up with a poll! Henri is leaving on vacation for 3 weeks on Friday, so I am going to try to finalize this by Thursday night. (At least I hope - I am off to visit my sister on Thursday in Hamilton so I am planning to use her computer to finish this.)
You can make 2 choices - 1 for moderator & 1 for backup. My list of choices is somewhat arbitary - members from MCA's top 25 list that have been active in the last year. If there is anyone on this list who wishes to opt out then say so in a post or send me a private communication.
To help with the choice check out MCA's summary of the activities of the top 25 here:
MCA's Top 25
and you might also like to check out MCA's summary of the UDF postings.
MCA's summary of the UDF postings
You might also review some of the responses given by these members. This forum tends to be of a higher level than the starter forum so a teckie might be a good idea for this forum. One of my first thoughts were Shawn & LLigetfa but these 2 are already moderators. You should give some thought to conflicts since there is actually 4 choices to be made. Two here & 2 in Starters.
Below I took the liberty of restructuring some of MCA's statistics.

The statistic "median monthly rank" needs some explaining. I went through MCA's 9 columns of monthly postings over the last year & rated each of the top 25 by month. This is the median value of the 9 columns. Thus LLigetfa got a ranking of 1 by the number 1 contributor in over half of the 9 columns. This number indictes who was a consistently high contributor over the past year.
Remember you have 2 choices:
