7. To get on the forum hosts waiting list, just go to

any main forum, as listed in the previous post and click the About tab. Under the list of forum hosts, you'll find the waiting list, along with instructions for how to add your name to it. Right now, there are five people on the list. They'll all be hosts within 30 days. The longer the list, the longer it takes for a name to rise to the top of the waiting list and move into being a Host.

I see that you are qualified to be a Host. I highly recommend trying it. It's very interesting. You could also add your name to the MIRT list when the announcement shows up. You'll be surprised at how collegial both groups are and how objectively their duties get handled. Either is a great way to help DU run more smoothly.
