klibc - Oct 2006 - Switching list to subscriber-post only?

Given the recent spam epidemic, I would like to hear people's opinion on 
switching this list to subscribed-post only (all non-subscribers would 
have their posts held for moderation.)

Depends how likely the moderators are to keep up with the postings.  

I'd hate for conversations that get cc:'d to lkml or whatever to be
limited by one person's ability to moderate messages and dig through the
pile of spam.

The spam on the list hasn't been so bad that I've cared - not compared
to other places I'm subscribed to - so I'm inclined to leave it the way
it is.

Seems reasonable to me, though the latency can sometimes be a pain
(given I almost always subscribe to lists using a different address to
what I post with).
