    Why not go for it and start it yourself.
    We know some will not move so it will be an additional facility. =
Please make sure it is has no taboo, f
    frequencies, modes, opinions, or subjects rules, and no childish =
sulking.
  Another suggestion is to not make it an open group, meaning that each =
request for membership should be
  accompanied by a very short introductory message explaining why that =
membership is requested.
  Then the moderator(s) of the group will decide whether to accept it or =
not.  I suppose the same is done
  presently with the Majordomo mailer.

  And, if that introductory message is convincing, but up to a point... =
then the moderator can accept the individual,
  but putting him in moderation status, meaning that every message from =
him must be examined by the moderator(s)
  before being published.  The moderation status can be removed after a =
couple of legitimate messages from the guy,
  showing that he is not a troll or spammer.

  I use this method on my soft_radio  Yahoo group  =20
  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/soft_radio/
  with more than 2300 subscribers, and, if memory serves, I had just a =
couple of cases where a spam message=20
  got through in more than 8 years of the existence of that group.
