Well, several sites are using it, and I haven't gotten any fp reports
either on-list or off-list.  However, my personal opinion is that no
list should ever be used for outright blocking.  I would recommend using
it in a scoring system.  But try it out and see what you think.

It should be available via the Sanesecurity rsync servers very soon...
