Well, here's one example, I have a set of 5-6 working groups that we set up 
after a strategic planning exercise.  They're all going to be done and out 
of business in two months or less, and they're all comprised of busy, non 
"techy" people who agreed to communicate in this way because they were told 
it was easy and reliable.  I just want them to be able to join, and/or put 
them in myself.  I'm not worried that brp2340928348@yahoo.com is going to 
try to join and scarf the roster, I'm not trying to manage some 
15-year-running sacred community with elders and hobbits and trolls and 
stuff, I'm just trying to get some working listspace going for people I 
*know* want to be there, with a minimum of BS.
