Bot/spider/crawler avoidance.
Short answer is no, until we archive and encrypt the whole list, take down
the hooks to nabble etc. (potentially lose a lot of folks in the
transition) and make it a closed community.

That speaks volumes to both sides of our community.  We want an open and
involved group, we want to remain vigilant in protecting our livelihoods in
the 2020+ cyber aware world.

Thanks for listening,
