For future releases:

1) Ability to block self spotters.

2) Ability to block non-DX spots inside the same continent (or even
inside the same country)!

3) Ability to block bragging spots: tnx, tks, tu, thx

4) Ability to block begging spots: pse...

These make more than 80% of spots received today. The cluster software
people refuse to make commands available to do this.

I am able to block most of the bragging and begging spots in DXSpider,
but the rest?

IARU and others have made excellent guidelines how to use a DX Cluster,
but very few operators seem to have read them. I have even heard an
Italian station to claim that "DX Code of Conduct" is wrong!

Much education is needed, but how to address the ex-CB operators who do
not care?

Just food for the thought.
