Duncan,
Do not know of a moderated JSP list.. But an example of a very successful
moderated list (ASP focused) can be found at www.asplists.com run by
Charles Carroll of www.learnasp.com. Very tightly moderated along topic
specific lines. Very focused and VERY useful.
Nice thing about it is that he has different lists for beginning/advanced
users broken down by topic. For e.g there is a list dedicated specifcally
to database access using asp and one focused on using xml with asp.
Even better is the fact that lot of knowledgable people hang out in the
topics that interest them, so people who ask the questions get very high
quality answers very quickly.
