I oppose moderation. 1) It is a form of censorship. 2) It (inevitably) introduces bias. 3) If you don't like *them* (net.loon, etc.), create a kill file.
Like I said I already filter the list and generally only read the people that I know will make a post that worth my time to read. I don't propose that an moderated list is set up, but I suspect that I will probably make available a filtered (by message, not by author.. by author would be too easy) version of the list available if I find it profitable. If I suck at the job, then no one will use my filter and it will be moot. (And I'll search for other ways to make my net-service Better Than the Rest[tm]) -Sameer
