Actually, the lists attract too many spammers. Many more spammers than
the redhat list, LinuxSA list, gtk list, gnome list, reiser filesystem
list, dsssl list, docbook list, freeciv lists, ethereal list, glade
list, gnome list and high availability list. I am subscribed to them
all. Every now and then some spammer gets the better of them, but none
of them get hijacked the number of times that the LDP mailing lists do.

No. Not to the moderators. /dev/null. I presume that the list servers
have enough bandwidth to throw stuff in the trash.

There are about 10 people who are all contributors to this list who seem
to make LDP policy. I don't have a problem with this...I didn't mean to
say I disagree with how things are run....I just needed a way to make
sure that those who mattered listen. And they have.
