Why? If wikipedia can do without moderation (for most pages) then why couldn't the Python docs? If we're strictly talking about user comments, I won't disagree, but the main docs do need to be "authoritative" IMO. Aside to Georg: your messages are all getting /dev/null'd because you use "spam" in your From: line. I get too much spam to change that, and I'll bet other people use that heuristic. Please change your From: line for this mailing list.

I don't quite understand that. Why would a spam email have "spam" in the From?

For me, the "-nospam" suffix works relatively good to avoid spam, as most harvesting programs will think this is a false address.

Of course, that may be more useful in Usenet, not in mailing lists.
