A note from a chair of a list I participate on. 
One side effect is to limit the participation of 
non-OASIS members regardless of their depth of 
participation or contribution.  That can be a 
serious handicap to the niche efforts.  It 
would be sad to see the innovations that are 
born of research and experimentation have to 
move to Yahoo.

I understand the difficulties of constraining 
open lists.  I also understand the advantages. 
Far too often what has initially looked like 
yet another lunatic-fringe element has proven 
to be a seminal and important source of ideas 
even where they are in conflict with the immediate 
goals of the corporate membership.

It seems there is 
some push to restrict discussion on the comments 
lists and to move serious discussion to the 
restricted discussion lists. 
</Snip>

Can you please elaborate more as to why you feel this way?
