Martin,

As the popularity of this list and also of Yahoo's increases, the 
more likely this list will become prone to spam attacks.

The Russian Camera group of Bob Shell fame, finally had to move to 
another list (Beststuff) because of spam attacks. Have a look at that 
list to see what's its like when the spammers take over.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/russiancamera/

The group finally moved to:
http://www.beststuff.com/forum/index.php?f=25

Another possibility would be an email forum such as the Prodig 
listserv. They have a listmum on weekly rotation duty. They are spam 
free, as far as I know.
http://www.prodig.org/

And then there is the Topica lists, where John Browlow (who used to 
be active on this list) founded a street photography group.
Topica being less known than Yahoo is more likely to be under the 
radar of spammers.

The above are just examples, not even suggestions. There may be 
problems with these lists that I may not be aware of.

As long as the spam is tolerable, and we dont break into hives(?) 
when one is posted, I say let's go on as usual.
Cheers,
Andre
