[AusNOG] Moderated/Vetted AusNOG list to reduce the guff (was Re: Understanding lack of Aus connectivity to melbournefreeuniversity.org.)

[Mark Smith]

Once off vetting, and then having people control themselves is going to be far less moderation effort than having a small set of moderators have to read each and every email and hit some of them on the head. The threat of losing your privilege of being able to participate should be enough to make people moderate themselves, or quickly stop if they are told by others that they've crossed the line.

If issues such as this one need to get into the public domain, they will indirectly.
