With my Salsa admi hat on, spending sooo much time on acct approval: THANKS. Indeed, it is annoying us a lot, Salsa users too, but anyone sending us a quick email always receives a reply in due time. This indeed is better than having bots spamming all of Salsa. I like the invitation from a DD idea, that would avoid the pending approval phase for a new account, but I have no clue how to implement it. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
