I've just noticed the list archives for this list (accessible via the

There are (public) clones of the archives....
And it takes all of a few seconds to subscribe and get access to the official ones. That's why I'm struggling to see the point of having them restricted.

So just to confirm, if I sign up to this mailing list and click the confirmation email link, I'm subscribed? There's no moderation by a list admin or anything like that? If that's the case, then I agree that there's no point having a private list archive.
