I just changed it.  However it didn't say "by invitation only", it said
"by approval only".  I realized that must have been what was concerning
you so I removed the words.

I was filtering subscription requests to this mailing list for a while
but it looked like the only people who subscribe now are ones who are
actually interested in submitting patches.  So, I just let everything
through.

I wish I could say the same for cygwin-developers.  For some reason
people seem to want to insist that cygwin-developers is a bug-reporting
maiilng list.  And, then to argue with me when I inform them that that
is not its purpose.
