Folks, There has been an increasing amount of spam sent to the http-wg mailing list. Several people on the list have asked why I allow spam to be sent. Firstly, it is difficult to distinguish between spam and legitimate postings. Secondly the http-wg mailing list is currently open and non-moderated. There are several solutions: * We can just delete spam messages. * The list could be changed to a closed list where only people subscribed to the list may post. * The list could be moderated. * Somebody could come up with a good way of determining spam, or alternatively legitimate postings to the list. I'm open to all sensible suggestions. -- (http-wg list owner) -- ange -- <>< http://www-uk.hpl.hp.com/people/ange ange@hplb.hpl.hp.com
