Greetings,
The problem with a hard .mil/.gov rule is that it would block
government contractors who lack such an email address. I'm here via
that route and some manual vetting did occur when my initial automated
attempt to subscribe was rejected. The sponsor idea is interesting,
though it would probably represent some bureaucracy and a record
keeping burden for someone.
So for expediency I'd also say to only lock it down if a problem
arises. This list has a refreshingly high s/n ratio compared to some
I'm on.

I haven't seen much inappropriate posting to this list, so I don't see
any need to have it moderated, unless a problem causes the need. I
can see the value in not limiting the list exclusively to .mil and
.gov addresses but it is good to limit it to those with some valid
connection to the Federal Government. I was under the impression that
someone was monitoring and approving all new subscription requests
anyway. Perhaps a .mil/.gov address shouldn't be the only criteria.
Perhaps those with other TLDs should have a .mil/.gov "sponsor".
