Yes, I have noticed the spam.
No, I don't like it.
But, I would much prefer Mandrake spend their time making improvements to
their distribution then spending their time dealing with spam. It's a
problem that everyone is going to have to live with for the rest of their
lives, anyway. I don't see a little more hurting anything. Let them do
what they do best, make a really awesome Linux distribution.
I'm sure when they have a moment to stop their production to solve their
problem, they will. I personally don't like having to sit here and sort
through spam from people complaining about spam.
'Nuff said.

Who in the hell is the mailing list administrator
from Mandrake? They should fire him and hire one
who gets his job done. If a Software firm can
not manage properly a mailing list what about their
Linux distribution? Sure a distribution is much more
complex then a mailing list. They do themselves
not a good thing by not solving the SPAM problem.
I didn't saw such problems in mailing lists from
Debian, SuSE, or Red Hat - only Mandrake.
