I think that membership should not require explicit approval, but
pre-moderation of the first few posts would be reasonable. Inability
to post-moderate is a problem, but that needs new software.

It would be interesting to find out why this list is so much less
active and useful than it was; I get the impression most of the
drama and foolishness has been transferred to the wiki, which is not
necessarily good.
