Thoughts on list policies

[rodney at sabletech.com (Rodney Thayer)]

I propose we make it a simple process to add and subtract lists, and then
we can set up work teams for projects.  For example, we might have had an
installfest list.  we'd have a "fall linux bash" list.  we might have a
program committee list.

These lists would be closed and controlled by the directors so the
people-process of getting added was easy but the mechanics would prevent
random list membership creep.
