Well there's always debian-drivel^W -devel for you to join, it
generally sees 50--150 messages a day and has nowt to do with RPM or
Red Hat :-)

(Pedant: "LKML list" is redundant, it expands to "Linux Kernel Mailing
List list".)  I get a lot of spam from mailing lists.  Many lists
(including LKML, I think) don't require you to be a subscriber to post
to the list, which makes spammers' jobs easy.  Most of these also
implement some kind of spam filtering (e.g. the Debian lists use a
customised spamassassin, several black lists and crossassassin) but a
few still sneak through.
