I commend you for your ability to deal with unsolicited email (spam), 
but until groups such as this are hosted by a secure server, I will 
continue to use a munged email address. The generally accepted spirit of 
any news group is that a public message warrants a public response, and 
we all have the option to either reply back to the sender, to the news 
group, or to both.

That said; my personal community effort here, is to encourage 
developers, who have diminished in numbers, to return. (See previous 
threads and comments regarding the influx of end user questions). If you 
do see any further mislabeled Off Topic posts, please assist the poster 
with a solution or recommendation, rather than labeling my community 
effort as an "off topic nazi".

If you and your peers form a consensus to help as many users as possible 
with their concerns, I will then gladly step in with my input. About 95% 
of the off topic technical questions which I have labeled, could have 
been comprehensively answered by me, but I chose to redirect, instead. 
This appears to me to be the strongest request posted at mozilla.org.

Have a great day! ;-)
