This is okay, but I would still much much prefer it if
DEFAULT_DEFAULT_MEMBER_MODERATION were just set to 0, Barry. 

I love the feature, but I hate changing the default.  Please trust me
when I say you will get hundreds of flaming bug reports from people
who do not use the web interface (only knowing 'newlist' as the way to
create lists) then have to manually set each user's moderated flag by
hand.  It's still a huge change from Mailman 2.0.

I still think DEFAULT_DEFAULT_MEMBER_MODERATION should be set to 0.
The web interface choice, though, is nice.

Ben
