problem with this idea is that JF doesn't always use those terms in his other non-relavant emails. JF simply is abusing the entire process and should have his posting privs revoked completely.
Has anyone taken the step of talking to his bosses at Ameritech?

Quote from Gert Doering: } I have for a long time argued for "the RIPE lists have to be *open*", } but I want to second Neil's request now. Jim Fleming is not listening, } and just disturbing the open processes.
I already privately suggested this to Hans, but I thought I might as well suggest it publicly:
The RIPE lists already use some sort of a spam assassin to keep clean. Instead of trying to ban the said entity from the list, the phrases "ipv8" and "ipv16" should be added to the list of definitive spam words in the spam filter. They are not relevant with what RIPE is meant to oversee the same way sex, drugs and rock'n'roll aren't.
That way, if the said entity ever wants to make a worth-while contribution nothing will prevent it, and our high goals of openness can still be met.
