Argh, spammers. 

It takes way too much time to manage these things effectively. Same with
forums. Things like Twitter are great because you have less opportunity
for spammers to try to use the platform. They can @reply you, but that's
about all.

IIRC we decided a while back that this group was not "official" and left
it up to the folks who'd started it to keep it healthy. Maybe one of the
managers could add you if you have some time to help weed out the spam?

Best,
