Im subscribed to netfilter and netfilter-dev but does it matter? you are spamming on multiple lists about something not related to the list subject. People subscribe to the list to exchange information and discuss relevant subjects not to get ads... If you are trying to bring people to your event than I guess you are doing the exact opposite by spamming in all these lists. Amine.
