I can certainly see why moderation wouldn't be practical, but I've always 
been curious why the -isp list has had an open posting policy.  You would 
think that those using FreeBSD in an ISP environment wouldn't be put off 
by having to subscribe to the list in order to post a question, but maybe 
that's a bad assumption.

Obviously you wouldn't want that for many of the other lists, but for more 
specialized lists like this one, I'm genuinely curious why they're open.
