The CentOS team likes to offer an apology for the political spam mails which went through our mail servers earlier today. Due to the nature of mailing list software for public discussion groups, there aren't that many security measures which can be taken to check which mails are supposed to get through and which mails aren't. Total safety can only be had by a moderation of all lists - and that is not where we want to go. The spammer today faked the identity of a CentOS core developer and thus got through on all mailing lists. That these mails also got through the moderated centos-announce list was an oversight in the configuration of that list which has been fixed now. The CentOS team does not condone such behaviour and does not wish to support any political agenda through the mailing lists of the Project - in case you had wondered. Regards, Ralph Angenendt
