Another "yes" vote for Anti-Flem filters on the IETF mailing list.
Regards, -drc
I agree. Can't our IESG at least convene a working group to figure out how to properly filter this mailing list? I know this is a radical idea, but perhaps a sequence of draft a charter, appoint a chair, circulate a draft, check out any working code, meet at the next IETF, and send it up to the IESG as a proposed standard?
Our leaders don't seem to be able to moderate the direction of the list, so perhaps a mechanical means such as Noel suggested is in order. Otherwise, a once-valuable resource will continue to degenerate beyond the current low level of pretty-much-useless.

Carl, Are you still in charge of the ISC ? Has ISC finished converting from a non-profit company to for-profit company ? Are you and David Conrad trying to avoid answering about what you plan to do at the end of this month ? Again... What does ISC plan to do at the end of this month as part of the legacy Root Name Server Cluster ? Have you developed your policies on that yet ? Do you plan to just pull whatever root zone that Network Solutions provides ? 1. A - Network Solutions, Inc. (A) 2. B - University of Southern California (ISI2) 3.
