You just can't do members-only on IETF WG lists. See recent discussion

        I'm not sure what "members-only" means in your usage.
Self-moderated[1] lists have been permitted for some years in
IETF business, provided that non-subscriber email goes to some
human who then posts the on-topic email.

        The IESG have put authoritative information online at:
http://www.ietf.org/IESG/STATEMENTS/moderated-lists.txt,
which folks ought to at least review prior to commenting further.

speaking only for myself

[1] A self-moderated list is one that accepts postings from a
source email address that is subscribed to the list but declines 
to accept postings from source email address that is not on
the list.  Most usually, postings from a source email address
that is not subscribed to the list would go to a human list
administrator.
