So far there's one new volunteer whom I recently setup access for,
that's JollyRoger. Pretty much everyone else is more in inactive mode
now, I think, meaning happy to leave or, if preferred, would not mind
staying around in case someone who newly joined needs help.

At least that's my understanding, should I be mistaken it would be good
if people would state so - I don't want to make a wrong impression.

Yes that's the most common way of demonstrating that you're actively
involved with a local IMC. Thanks, and confirmed. Do you also have an
OpenPGP key available?

If I recall correctly you have a sysadmin background, so I assume you'd
be comfortable with having system level access, too? In any case we'll
need to setup a user for you on SoS (at least if Listwork continues to
use this for managing incoming requests for changes). So I need you to
send me at least a preferred username, for system level access also a >=
2048 bit OpenSSH public so I can set you up. How to generate one on
Linux and what to keep an eye on is explained here:
  https://docs.indymedia.org/Sysadmin/ImcSecurityServerOpenSSH
On Windows you'd probably use 'puttygen', then convert this to OpenSSH
format (I can do this for you).
