I've seen this on the VLC-SVN and Ros-SVN Mailing Lists. What exactly
*is* this spam?

I don't know, I didn't give in to their spam by checking out their website.
I've now set this subscriber to moderated to intercept their spam.

unwanted and advertisment not explicitly requested is spam, and that is
unacceptable.

They could've at least contacted someone before if it's ok to advertise.
Even if they did I'd object due to their commercial interest.

advertised for in all my spam emails, why should this be different
except that it's broadcast to all people subscribed to our lists. This
is *very* annoying.
