ugh, our list isn't supposed to be moderated.  Anyone know who's in
charge of the mail server now?  Can we get this fixed?

Currently, I run the mail server. We switched to moderated lists in
mid-August due to a huge increase in spam.

It was just that one backscatter flood targeting the ewg list, right?

It's really annoying to people trying to report bugs etc to get the
bounce about subscribers-only lists.  Would it make sense to move the
hosting of the general list to vger.kernel.org, since they have a lot
more resources/experience as mail admins and seem to be able to run open
but relatively spam-free lists?
