Yes, please. I use gmane for almost every other list I follow, especially the high traffic ones. I see very little spam in them, and what I do see is usually detected by gmane and cross posted to their spam group, making it easy to filter out... except that I see so little spam that I haven't even bothered to filter it. Please give it another shot... Nathan
