I was under the impression (until seanc told me otherwise about 4 weeks ago,
as he was trying to subscribe) that www was an open list anyway.  Do you know
who was looking after this before the move to mailman ?

Also, are current subscribers to the freebsd-www@ list committers (or similar)
only?  If not, I can't see any reason not to open the list to all subscribers,
but really we need to establish who has been approving subscription requests
all this time and ask them what grounds they were basing approval and denial on.
