Yes, there were plenty of reposts, and reposts are typically bad. But that doesn't mean it isn't a topic HN wants to discuss as it did finally get traction on this latest go at it.

Timing (and luck) can be everything on these sites and some don't actively attempt to game the system and post at the most optimal times to get views/votes. If it stops here, I don't see a problem with the reposts... Just not sure where you would draw the line between this and spamming the boards.

I don't have a problem with the content (I found it interesting myself). What I have a problem with is users who keep submitting the same stories over and over again. I'm pretty sure that's against the HN TOS.
