Are you volunteering to be the moderator?  Moderation is alot of work, 
and/or would slow the list down to a crawl.

Perhaps limiting who can post would be somewhat useful though.  Perhaps 
only people actually operating "real networks", where "real networks" are 
somehow defined by their size or their participation in BGP.

As long as I'm ranting, what about all the recent "could someone with clue
from Network X please contact me privately?" posts?  If I was that person
at Network X, I'd want to know what your issue was before I bothered
contacting you (very few of these posts have included any problem
description)...both so that I could look at the problem (if there was one)
before contacting you, so that I could have the appropriate person contact
you (if I'm not it), and so I could not waste the time if you're trying to
contact me about an issue (or non-issue) you have no business wasting my
time with.
