 I'm wondering: perhaps we could remove the moderation requirement
 altogether ?!

 We'd get a little more spam, but I think it's manageable.

This list is a bit unusual, in that it's more used for the general
public to alert a group of people than it's used for discussion
amongst that group of people. How many spam a day does it see? Would
it be enough to bother people?

As far as I know, I'm the only person processing moderated messages.
I don't think Peter deals with them.  Largely the traffic is from
people requesting Wiki access, because they're usually not members of
the list, or it's spam.

IIRC, wasn't moderation introduced to the list for a reason?  We could
just remove it, as long as people don't complain about the occasional
spam message that gets through.

How many spam messages do you see in moderation for this list ?

Perhaps we could just try to turn off moderation and then revisit
this in a month or so.

It's perhaps 5-10 per week.

That would be fine with me.
