I feel your pain, which is why I wanted to address it to some extent, and why I wrote that post.
I hope that thread dies, and the discussion moves here.
Can you not see however, that the recruiters are all over the list, hitting reply-all, and not really helping the list at all, and it's because of that, that we need to make it clear why they're not wanted, why they shouldn't be on the list in the first place, and why we want our list back?
Don't be part of the problem (leaving the list so making the recruiter/coder ratio even worse), be part of the solution. Re-join the list, and let's start some interesting tech discussions. I'll start. Check the list in 20 minutes.
