For commercial spamming I would guess.  I posted it to wear-hard before 
and that was the only change that was suggested (IIRC).  Personally, I 
was for unmoderated for the reasons you stated, but some others had 
differing opinions.

I posted it as an RFD, but I never made it to a CFV.  I should have, but 
again, I just got busy.  You'll have to post it as an RFC again, but it 
went through with no problems last time, so it should fly.

I'd really love for this to happen.  BTW, while were expanding all this 
stuff, do we have an IRC channel?
