Unmoderated means unmoderated. You can't have "unmoderated discussion" on a moderated list, nor can you moderate on an unmoderated list. Either this list will continue to fill the niche that bugtraq doesn't---a security list that isn't moderated---or it won't. If the admins decide to moderate the list, they're turning full-disclosure into a bugtraq knockoff. At that point, given the amount of noise, it's probably no longer worth it to be subscribed to both, and full-disclosure will just lose. Len et al, don't be foolish. Keep full-disclosure useful and tell the crybabies to man procmailrc. -- Riad Wahby rsw@...t.org MIT VI-2 M.Eng
