No, I believe even the volume of comp.lang.c++ wasn't enough to
encourage moderation.  It was, as in this case, one person

Meanwhile, I keep seeing conflicting sweeping statements by
certain fans of c.o.m., though the 'we need Eiffel presence on
the Moderation team' was, considering the timing, too funny.
