Apparently everyone can post to the > list. Because non-subscribers cross-post between linux-kernel and cpufreq-list for eg. When this happens to moderated lists, the result is a nuisance for both list admins, and anyone unfortunate enough to be on the Cc: list. People should not have to be subscribed to a list just to report a bug. It's annoying as hell every time I come up with random patches, dig out the contact address out of MAINTAINERS, and send patches to get a 'you aren't subscribed yadayada' email back. Dave
