Thanks Mark and Joseph.  Sure thing, it just looked off.  My main concern
were the spearphishing-type download links contained within.

Let me dig into a bit and come back to you with some potential solutions.
Perhaps as a quick fix, we can implement allow/blocklist and restrict issue
submission to wg member emails. Not sure if that feature is available on
this version of bitbucket.

Agree on the full time moderation, admin overhead is not sustainable,
assume this is most folks’ side side gig :)

I am over here working on ID Proofing with George Fletcher at our day job
and he’s encouraged us all to give back more to the standards bodies. So
will do my best to help out wherever I’m needed.  Are there any recordings
of the wg sessions? The morning times are tough for me to make and I was
swamped again for yesterday’s call, unfortunately.

Thanks,
Hodari
