I was referring more to making the spam filter smarter. But I'm surprised we have only one listmod - I agree redundancy is a good idea.

Yes, this is what I was referring to; that we have someone else (as well as Tim) be a listmod in case anything pops up. I wasn't suggesting we do thinks the wikien-l way; we're nowhere near big enough (thankfully!) to be considering that.
Any ideas for a new listmod?

The list is basically unmoderated, which is a good way for it to be - we don't want every message pre-screened, or even many of them. Even slight active moderation, as on wikien-l, is a major pain in the backside and a source of much angst and stupidity (I'm one of the wikien listmods), and you really don't want that if at all avoidable. So far I really don't think commons-l needs that.
That said, multiple listmods are always a good idea.
