The new devcoin admins, in decreasing order of seniority, are Notabot (Fheenix on devtome), TaxReturn, Alyssa85, Acs26, and Ranlo. They were given the options of:
1) Signing up writers, along with Fuzzy Bear, Weisoq and any other signing administrators. The work would be split according to the writers' name, for example if there were three, the first signing administrator would handle A-E, the second F-K, and the third L-Z.
2) Check to see that articles meet the devtome requirements.
3) Awarding the tiny (fraction of a share) bounties, and checking that paid maintenance work is being done.
4) Investor relations. Charting the growth in words and page views. When we have advertising revenue, determine the net present value of writing a devtome article and chart the growth in revenue.
5) Make up your own job.
Acs26 was additionally given the option of continuing to admin the Aegis account.
Notabot chose investor relations, and made the charts and statistics page at:

TaxReturn, Alyssa85, and Ranlo chose to check articles. Acs26 chose to continue to admin the Aegis account.
The post of Promotion Administrator has been eliminated. I offered FinShaggy the option of other admin work, and he chose to concentrate on writing. The offer to FinShaggy for other admin work is open, he can choose something if he ever wants to.
Admins are chosen by invitation. I look over the posts on the devcoin threads, especially the main one, and if someone who gets generation devcoins is polite, makes several informative posts, and/or helps newbies, then I'll ask that person to be an admin. If someone messages me with a request to be an admin, I'll look over their posts if I haven't already.

Having admins doing option 2 is very good as it can prevent people abusing the generation share from devtome by writing faux articles.
