Hi folks,
What say we create a new group to replace this one, perhaps called
"Prototype Scriptaculous Users"? I have four reasons for suggesting
this:

One weird thing I've noticed with the "Messages from new members are  
moderated" flag is that when a moderator accepts the first message of  
a new member, the member is not automatically accepted as an "old  
member", and her further messages will be flagged as waiting for  
approval as well. A moderator must explicitly go to the members list,  
find the new member, and mark her as not new in order to get things  
right. This is not a huge deal, just a gotcha and against how I'd  
think new member moderation should work. It seems like it's made more  
for moderating new members that post stupid questions than for  
moderating new members that are spammers.
Cheers,

I wonder this myself.  I haven't had an opportunity to get in touch with 
  Core lately, but know alread that:
a) Kangax is just about Core (he contributes a lot and hangs out in 
Core's CF room these days…)
b) I am Core, and I approve.
c) The only major issue I see with that is that this group's address is 
ref'd everywhere as the official support ML for Proto/Scripty.  It's 
going to take some time for the links to migrate, so we would need to go 
the extra mile in directing existing and new users alike to the new 
group when officially retiring this one.
d) A lesser issue is that we're going to lose the archives, aren't we? 
I mean, we can't port them over to the new group, right?  So when people 
search the group for past replies, they'll lose on the whole 
RoR-Spinoffs history and we'll get even more "this has been answered in 
excruciating detail a gazillion times" questions…
e) The major wanko issue I see with that is that I'm going to lose my 
all-time message record [1] ;-)  Ah well, couldn't last forever!
I'll try and grab Core in CF to ask about this.

I can't wait! Seems like the spam level kicked up as soon as I
suggested it.. ;-)
Spam? Do you mean to say you are content with the current size of your "thingy"? I for one, welcome the helpful messages that those really nice people are spreading for free. Spam, indeed!
Aye! (Obviously)
