Suggestions -
1. Once a month
2. CLEARLY tagged commercial
3. If there are > 1 lists for the same entity (say linux-india-* and
ilug-bangalore-* then they can post to ONLY ONE of the lists, not to LIH +
LIG + LIP, etc)
4. If it has language like "THIS IS NOT SPAM BECAUSE IT IS LEGAL UNDER S1618
OF THE US CONGRESS" that rates an automatic ban from posting further
newsletters / price lists.
5. Stuff like what GT Enterprises did (scraping addresses off the list, and
mailing price lists to people separately offlist) is streng verboten /
forbidden / sakht manaa ... etc.
OK I guess?

There is no way to know the exact number of Linux users in the
world ... a counter was set up five years ago. All linux users
NOT registered should do a one-time registration at:
