The moderation would be at our discretion. That is, if no-one is 
available to moderate a post, then it doesn't make it to the list. Users 
who want to attempt to post to the list are notified of this.

Well, by participating 'sensibly' on the mailing list, someone could 
soon become a full member...

Certainly if we make archives public, I think we should allow 'read 
only' subscribers to the list. I'm happy with not allowing submissions 
from 'the public' at all, but I do think it's an idea worth considering.
