I think this would be a good idea. However, we would need some rules
for the cancels, so that everybody knows what gets canceled and what
not (on the other hand, most crossposters, spammers and
make-money-fast-posters don't care about the newsgroups anyway, so
they won't read the rules).

If we could find a consensus, I could even include a brief summary or
a pointer to a web-page (if one will be created) in the FAQ.

However, it's good to talk about such issues before actually doing
something. We should take care that there are no "cancel-wars" in the
ch.*-newsgroups.
