Archives clean up

Archives clean up

[Xavier Maillard]

Hello,

I am wondering whereas there is something to « clean up » GNU.org archives
such as we can delete all old spam postings.

If so, I am volunteering to do it little by little beginning with Emacs
discussion mailing lists.

Thank you.

Xavier

I don't know whether it is possible or desirable to delete archive
messages, but some people are starting to moderate some of the Emacs
mailing lists to eliminate spam.  If you want to do this, please write
to karl at gnu.org.

And I must thank you for doing a good job. Today when I checked the
gnu.emacs.bugs, there was only "nice" messages.

Thanks!

That is better as is, isn't it ? :)

I also do appreciate the *new* mailing list.
