I am looking at Robomoderation to handle this. Once I get support with
a team who would like to see this materialize we will discuss the
charter
and scripts that can weed out any garbage that we don't want in the
newsgroup. Once this is done it will be carried over to the news
adminstrators who can implement the software ensuring a quality
newsgroup.

I have found many people interested in this. And I thank you for your
input it has helped me think this all out better.

If you all interested in joining our team in designing a charter
I welcome you to send email "mailto:r...@netctrl.com"
