Just hang a sensor off Sourceforge sniffing the mail traffic. Someone 
write some (kick-ass) rules to detect the questions coming in and 
generate auto-email responses to the respective requestors. And then we 
spend a while talking about DOS-by-question, the impossibility of 
writing rules that actually do what I describe, that sort of thing...
