Moderator Policy on crossposts to Security-Basics

[Kelly Martin <kel () securityfocus com>]

There have been an extraordinary number of new threads sent to the list
recently that are crossposted to other moderated lists. Please don't do
this.

Security-Basics is already very busy without crossposts, but more
importantly, it causes problems with the followups when one moderator
approves the thread while another does not. Many of SecurityFocus
moderators who look after our lower volume lists are quite strict about
crossposts as well, so I have no choice but to follow this policy.

If you must send your message to multiple lists, you are welcome to send
to each list independently. That way each moderator can retain control
over his list... and I don't have to spend several hours each day writing
responses to each person as to why his thread was rejected.

Thanks, and keep up the great posts,

Kelly
Moderator, Security-Basics
