I would hope  so, since the majority of WGs now are hosted on
ietf.org, and they should be setting things up by default...

Maybe we should also be better about reminding folk when setting up
mailing lists what the rules are.

Actually, seems like a short writeup on the WG chairs page saying
"Hosting of IETF mailing lists" with pointers/advice, and instructions
for getting them hosted at ietf.org would be useful...
