Before I subscribed to linux-arm-kernel, I had quite a few moderation
messages just because I responded to threads which included
linux-arm-kernel in the addresses, but were cross-posted (by others)
to say linux-kernel, uclinux-dev or linux-embedded.

I got moderation messages, and found them slightly annoying because
I'd put effort into my replies, and presumed that some people involved
in the thread wouldn't see them.  Possibly the important people.

That's the main reason I subscribed to linux-arm-kernel - just so I
know people can see replies to threads that I'm responding to on other
lists.

I do actually work on ARM kernels too, so don't unsubscribe me for that :-)

When I did subscribe to linux-arm-kernel, I got a message telling me I
was being considered...  Months went by, and it didn't subscribe me.
That was annoying.  I presumed I'd been rejected.

I tried again a few months later, and this time the subscription
approval process was relatively quick at a week or so.  I was
beginning to think I'd be silently rejected again, therefore delighted
to be counted among the Special Ones allowed to subscribe :-)

Other Linux mailing lists subscribe quickly with an automated
confirmation process, which is more useful.
