>Description:
I was quite surprised to see that the mailing list documentation does not
note, very early on, which mailing lists are moderated. This seems like
a bug to me, especially with the "everyone is encouraged to subscribe"
sentence at the beginning of the list.
Although I'm a doc committer, and thus could do this directly, I'd rather
see other people's opinions first.
