I agree with your comments about the moderators.

As far as "over chat" goes, 90% of what is posted can
be found in the archives.  I would love to see the
lists more focused, or something like what Ryan
proposed a few weeks back.  Seperate the topics so
people can read whatever they want to.

With that said, I think things are not so bad now
other than the censorship on the DML you spoke of.
