I don't know if this indicates where it's appearing, or only
where it's not already been cleaned out by the time I see it...

I found spam on trademark-policy-dev as well, a list with a Jive forum that has not been used in 10 months. I cleaned the forums and banned the users on your lists above, too. Thanks for the notice. I didn't find spam on three of your lists, though, so perhaps they were cleaned previously (Elaine out there? :).

Having abandoned lists and forums is only part of the problem, of course, but it is a problem we can easily solve with a use-it-or-lose-it policy. I am working my way through some deal lists/forums now as part of the website clean up prior to the move. Dead lists are easy to deal with. Low traffic ones are more difficult since they are, in fact, owned. However, I think we should start taking down the Jive forums to help this situation. If you don't absolutely need a forum, I'd love to see people start volunteering to have the forums deleted. I am happy to do this. Ping me on project-setup.

Jim
