What is LEO stands for in your terminology?

Law Enforcement Officer. Doesn't have to be a cop.

What is different about this then your current botnet tracking lists?

If its anti-spam & anti-phishing, there are several closed mail lists
discussing preventetive measures and tracking down those responsible
for abuse.

Yes, there are. Difference is, it will be a resource.

Today you may almost kill yourself trying to pass actionable intelligence to LE. If it is in a person's jurisdiction, you will know who to pass it to. How about Kentucky? How about Korea? Israel? Romania? NYC?

Same would go to finding the LEO's that are clued and/or interested enough, and offer them the chance to be added to said communities.

The listing will probably not be public, but hey, what can we do?
