You raise a good point, which is that I don't know what the group policy is or where it's posted. I just see this in the header on the google groups page: "Welcome to the Clojure mailing list. Please note that posts by new members are moderated to prevent spam." Anyone know better than this? (2

I'm not sure what the problem is here. I've posted personal blog links before that were Clojure related; I sincerely thought that it was potentially useful to the group, and I more or less got responses that supported that. That being the case, I'm having a hard time understanding what is so diff
