Correct. Please note my recent (but not yet through moderator approval)
changes removing all mention of @rpm.org, citing only RFE's  
@bugzilla.redhat.com,
specifically answering user questions seen on <rpm-list at rpm.org>, and  
pointing
out irrelevancies where needed.

But perhaps those demonstrable behavior changes are still not yet
conformant with <rpm-list at rpm.org> moderation policies.

I can/will certainly adapt (and apologize if necessary) if I  
inadvertently
do not conform to policies that I did not know existed until this  
morning.

Neither of those lists chose to have a moderation policy applied to  
@rpm5.org
members AFAIK.

Certainly, state the <rpm-list at rpm.org> policy publically if you  
desire, and I will conform.
I would suggest wording like
	All discussion of RPM implementations other than @rpm.org is subject  
to moderation.
to clarify the situation and prevent others from accidentally  
discovering that they
are subject to moderation. I certainly was unaware of <rpm- 
list at rpm.org> explcitly
strict guidelines forbidding general discussion of RPM when I joined  
this list.
