8.2. Duties of an Injecting Agent

8.2.  Duties of an Injecting Agent
   An Injecting Agent is responsible for taking a proto-article from a
   posting agent and either forwarding it to a moderator or injecting it
   into the relaying system for access by readers.

   As such, an injecting agent is considered responsible for ensuring
   that any article it injects conforms with the rules of this standard
   and the policies of any newsgroups or hierarchies that the article is
   posted to. It is also expected to bear some responsibility towards
   the rest of the network for the behaviour of its posters (and
   provision is therefore made for it to be easily contactable by
   email).

   To this end injecting agents MAY cancel articles which they have
   previously injected (see 7.5).
