Just to clarify for the readers: the main thing that is "robo" about
robo-moderation is that messages from known good posters (the
pre-approved list) go through automatically. All other posts are still
subject to human review, although spam that is detectable as such will
not waste their time. (Folks get on the pre-approved list after
establishing a positive record of contributions according to the group
charter and guidelines).
The trickle of recent spam postings is probably some other kind of
glitch. The good news is, the person (Jonathan Kamens) who manages this
software (STUMP) for the group knows what he is doing and will
undoubtedly get it straightened out soon.
