Re: mailing lists for pre-BoFs?

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <harald@alvestrand.no>]

I have an outstanding question with Barbara to figure out a ballpark 
estimate of how much creation of a mailing list costs.

The alternates we talked about are:

- A ML is created if an AD asks for it (AD needs to care about load)
- A ML is created if the IETF chair asks for it (Chair needs to care)
- A ML is created only when a WG is approved

But without knowing something of the cost to the secretariat, getting the 
cost-benefit right seems hard - so it's waiting on that resolution.
