I just took a few minutes and all I could find related to lkml spam
filtering was the one taboo file.

I'm really surprised that's all there is given that I don't see much
spam on those lists.

As to the announcement:

===
All,

As the opensuse mailing list collection has grown it has become
unwieldy for contributors to manage which mailing lists they
participate in.  The subscription only posting model in particular
makes it difficult for a mailing list thread to pull in non-subscribed
participants.

Following in the tradition of many development mailing lists, the
below mailing lists are no longer subscription only for posting.  For
this change to be meaningful, the participants of these lists need to
start using "reply-all" as their standard reply selection.

With this change, if a development related thread needs to call on the
resources of a non-subscribed contributor, or even a upstream
resource, simply add them to the cc line.  If all future posts on the
thread maintain reply-all, then that additional person will
participate in the thread from that point on.

In addition, this means that teams can post questions to other teams
lists without first subscribing.

As to increased spam: it is expected there will be a slight increase
in spam, but the opensuse mailing list filters will hopefully continue
to keep the vast majority of spam off the lists.

Henne, I made no effort to restrict the above list.  I don't know most
of those lists well enough to know how they are used.

I added the topic lists in addition to development and teams.
