Unfortunately we do not have the resources to moderate the list. This 
list does become very busy at times and moderating the messages would 
introduce a huge delay sometimes. I do think that there has been an 
increase in spam, but I did not see it as significant. It might be, 
that the spam cumulates now, since we are all busy preparing for the 
Panther release and it seems unusually quiet on the list. However I 
have no direct authority  to decide this, I am just guessing it will be 
highly unlikely that we introduce moderation. IMHO moderation also 
hinders development more than we would benefit form it.
