Hey all,
Here are my (edited) thoughts on how and why domains should be included
in UC. There are some fuzzy parts, so comments are not only welcome, but
strongly encouraged. :-) Editorial comments/questions in [ square
brackets ].
1. Domains worthy of inclusion into outright blocklists (WS, AB, et.
al.) should still be submitted directly to those lists, and not
submitted to UC. We don't want to list *everything*.. just domains
that can't otherwise be included in SURBL.
2. Domains that have significant definite legitimate uses should *not*
be sent to UC. [ I need help defining what "significant" means! Can
we draw some kind of line, even a broad one, for now? ]
3. Everything else in the middle ground is a UC candidate. We only want
to list domains that are very spammy. Domains can be submitted (with
justification) to this mailing list, or they can be submitted
privately to ***@sasknow.com.
[ Should we only accept domains that have already been hand-checked by
the submitters? ]
To be included in the list, domains need at least two *hand-checked*
votes to be included. [ Should the submitter count as a vote? Should I
count as a vote? Should we use require three votes? I'm thinking two is
sufficient and will keep the inclusion lag to a minimum. ]
I'll privately track the number of unique submissions, and maybe a few
other bits of meta-data.
