I disagree with moderation: it adds a lot of work for the moderator and a possible lot of additional delay for readers. Spam isn't a problem for this list and flamable/useless/off_topic messages are really rare. The hugeness reached by threads is another question and is related to the actual size of the ocaml community, in such sense even a moderator can hardly solve the question, expecially because I don't want a moderator to cut off a thread because it is getting too big!
