I with agree Andy Walker.
I am also willing to help in any way, whether that be SPAM system admin,
or whatever.

keep in mind that the people that are being shot at have actually
signed up to be shot at, just like you signed up to be on the mailing
list.
It wouldn't be a simple task for Willy to take over moderating a
mailing list, and with all of the work he does on HAProxy, I think
some of you could be a bit more appreciative of everything he does.
I'm sure if someone were to volunteer to help tackle this problem,
that he'd be more than willing to consider alternate options.

I should also be able to walk around town shooting at people.... Its
easy enough for people to buy a bullet proof vest... If they don't
have
one, its their problem...
Its the wrong way to look at it... Why waste thousands of CPU cycles
across thousands of machines worldwide because we're too stubborn
to fix
the problem at the source?
