It will.

Do any of y'all have a problem with a furriner moderating this list?

One of the two volunteers who've stepped forward is an Israeli who seems 
to have a pretty good background, but I'd like to see if there's any 
political problems before I cut him loose.

This list gets about 20 spam a day which need to be dumped regularly to 
keep the task manageable, up until about a month ago got about one 
message a quarter which needed approval, and in the last month has seen 
about two a week of those. I've also just bounced my second-ever post 
(from an Indian at RMIT Melbourne) which wasn't spam but wasn't 
suitable for the list either.

One of the joys of being on admin@ is yesterday's crudflood of about 
1500 spam to randomish names @linux.org.au. List moderators won't be 
added to admin@ (-:

Cheers; Leon
