Hi!
Hi Raymond!
Here's how it works (and I'm putting this out as a starting point for discussion, not the gospel!)
Uhm, sorry?
Gospel? Kind of a colloquialism derived from a religious term, meaning "absolute" or "not open to debate".
- When classifying domains for SURBL, continue to employ the same level of effort you do to find all domains worthy of blacklisting, and submit those to the usual sources.
This is in no way a SURBL project. SURBL staff listens to the discussion here, and we are talking behind the scenes to get things more streamlined. Feel free to start own projects, in fact, we would be happy to see more projects taking off.
I've been quite vocal in this discussion because I do believe that this *would* be a good thing for SURBL. But it isn't just me!
Ryan, i am not trying to be an ass, but somehow with this proposal you seem to feel things are not going fast enough, or not exactly the way you want to see it.
Actually, I was responding to a genuine interest from several readers of this very list to get something set up and try it out. My "proposal" was mostly just a public summary of the good ideas presented publicly and off-list, and had little to do with my own "feelings" on the matter...
So you basicly move on, and dont care what SURBL staff thinks of the project. You could have asked for a @surbl mailbox to set things up, or at least something like 'is it ok if i announce this?'
OK, I'll grant you that. I had no intention of ruffling the feathers of any "SURBL staff". You have my apologies.
If Ryan (or someone else) wants to take submissions directly, for different lists, fine, but do not use the mailinglist for this purpose, the volume is high enough as it is now.
No problem.
Again, this mail is not trying to upset anyone, i think most of you will understand our point of view, if not we would be willing to point that out offlist.
Thanks! I'll take you up on that! :-)
- Ryan
