Seeking co-moderator for ietf-types list

For some reason, the ietf-types list is the list I maintain that gets the 
most spam - up to 50 messages per day.
All of it (I think) gets trapped by the subscriber-only filter.

It is also a list where some mail from non-subscribers MUST get through 
(new submissions, for instance).

The combination means that moderation needs to be efficient, and fast.
I am finding that with the conversion of this list to Mailman, it is 
reasonably efficient (2 mouse clicks per message, basically), but given 
that I am the only one moderating, it is not fast.

With Mailman and Web-based moderation, having multiple moderators without 
getting confused is easy; the Web interface does the synchronization.

If there is a volunteer willing to do the mouseclicks when needed, I think 
the IETF-types would be better served by having 2 moderators than by having 
only one.

Volunteers please email me directly.
