That is a point, but, IMHO, that is one of our key issues ... we *allow* 
that sort of cross-posting in the first place ... FreeBSD lists allow 
cross-posting to no more then 2 mailing lists, I believe, but there is 
definitely a limit ...

... is there a reason why, other the fact that we don't do now, that we 
can't just put in a restriction against cross posting altogether?


... and, for those that have been here awhile, who "should know better", 
why isn't there any self-management of this sort of stuff in the first 
place?
