It's been proposed that a new newsgroup be created, 
digitalmars.D.moderated. It would work like moderated newsgroups on 
usenet do, such as comp.lang.c++.moderated. There would be 3 or 4 
volunteer moderators (not me), who would disallow posts that were 
off-topic, me too, spam, lacked content, or contained personal attacks. 
Ideally, the moderated group would set the bar for the quality of the 
messages.

The original newsgroups will remain as the free-for-all wild west that 
makes them both fun and perhaps a little intimidating for some. While I 
like the wild west approach, many others clearly find it uncomfortable.
