Over the last 24 hours, I think I count 10 spams, but that's probably higher than usual. I don't know if it's "excessive". It certainly isn't ideal, but it only takes 30 seconds to get rid of them, and we need to give my spam filter something to do, right? :-) I haven't been reading the list for very long, so I don't know how it compares to June or July. It feels like it's been increasing over time, but I don't have any numbers to back that up. -- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
