We're talking about a list with a useful lifetime of perhaps 3 weeks.
I really don't think spam is a big issue. Trolls might be, but they
would be *our* trolls ;-)

Anyway - as John Klensin said, we should come up with a reasonably
complete and welcoming set of info and facilities for the remotes.
That may well include pro forma registration.

It can be open to everyone to subscribe to, since anyone can see the
archives, HOWEVER I recommend that only registered participants be
allowed to post.
Ahem. Either remote participants are allowed to post, or they need
a list of their own. I would envisage a fair amount of chatter about
specific remote-participation issues, like "this new codec isn't
working for me, is it OK for anyone else using <browser version> on
<operating system version>?"
