Good point actually Christopher - and you're not the first to suggest it. I think this list has evolved over time to be a general discussion group around vaguely technical areas at the BBC - when it was first set up it was always going to be a 'noisy' list - and we've always recommended that you deploy filters rather than stopping debate.
We do not pre-moderate this list at all - and long may that stay. However, we did recognise that there was a need for a purely developer focused[1] list and that was implemented - I'm not sure we should start a new list for iPlayer discussion - I think the discussion going on here raises really important questions for the BBC and it's users, I don't want that to go away. Having said all of that we do plan to roll out new forum software in phase 2 of the new website that will allow you to still interact with the list in exactly the same way as now, but also subscribe and un-subscribe to various topics via that software - therefore allowing you to personalise the list to the areas that you are interested in. We will all of course be very sad to stop using MajorDomo.
