klibc - Mar 2008 - Polling again: switch the list over to subscriber-only?

Traffic on the klibc list has recently been very low, and unfortunately 
in the meantime, spam has picked up.  I'd like to poll the 
subscribership again if we should switch to subscriber-post-only to curb 
the spam.

What about automated ticket postings every month and "In-Reply-To"
checking of every new or in-thread message then.

IMHO it's easy to do, but It requires some work on server side. Didn't
see any smart spam (headers cheating) as well as non stupid (content
based) spam-checking...

The only question that comes to mind is the future of klibc. Is there  
still potential for merging at some point?  In ubuntu we never got to  
where we could do without glibc, and I'm curious how much push there  
is still to finish this off and get it merged, or made more standard  
across distros.

Beating around the bush I guess to ask if the project still has enough  
value to keep around at all...
