There is one more thing to take into consideration: more
infrastructure means more work. I said it above, I am exhausted by
this all. I was only managing one of the mailing lists so far (the
gimp-gui one, the most recent) and still had to regularly handle
spams. I am personally thankful that this work goes to GNOME admins now.
Spam did indeed heavily outweigh the on-topic messages on the other five
mailing lists for quite some time - and anyone who's ever maintained a
mailman-based mailing list can likely confirm that spam handling there
is not as comfortable as doing this in e.g. a capable mail client.
Not even minimum integration with tools like Spamassassin, CRM114 and
such? Or a workflow in which suspicious posts are sent to moderators
via email, who then send pass/drop commands (automated or by hand in
own mail client) to the mail list? Similar fashion than (un)subscribe
command.
Oh well, it seems too late anyway now.
Cheers,
GSR
