I think if we introduce moderation certain people are going to claim a bias, but I would think that the removal of clutter goes towards greater good than the delay of messages. Just make sure to have enough moderators maybe? Ideally, that is....depends on how much is involved in the moderation, too.
However, I think things do get off topic and its hard to steer the boat back on course quite a bit sometimes.
It's somewhat of a mixed bag, but I'd say go for moderation.

It is technically possible for OASIS to put this list in moderation

regard. Just let me know. Please.
Personally, I'd prefer this list to stay unmoderated for now. But it would probably help a *lot* if we all change the Subject of a message when we reply to something in a thread that's drifting to another topic.
