I for one support open lists because subscriber-only lists are a PITA
for contributors who send out patches to multiple subsystems. However,
if you (and the rest of the arm people) don't see the value of opening
the list up, why do you expect people to rush to support Joe's patch?
It's you who is losing out on contributors and if you don't see that
(or don't agree), you probably should keep the list subscriber-only,
no?
