Yes. Have you been getting any spam from the list lately ?
I was just trying to indicate that a larger percentage of the messages have been announcements and re-announcements of a certain Python package recently, usually with little information and a high ratio of redundancy in them. While I do not deny that this package does have a certain relevance to this list and its readers, I would still prefer if the signal to noise ratio of this list was a little higher. I think it's worth keeping in mind that there is a dedicated list for Python related announcements, and there also seems to be a mailing list dedicated to the package in question. ISTM that both are better suited for regular update announcements than this list.
