I can confirm that the address editors at tei-c.org receives its fair quota 
of spam -- between 10 and 30 messages a day.  I filter out anything in 
Russian or Japanese automatically, which accounts for most of it.

So probably we don't want this address going directly to the tei-council 
list. I suppose filtering out the wheat from the chaff (and passing the 
former on to the council) is something the proposed editorial activity 
should include, therefore.
