Not a problem; you're not the first to have done it.  I'm just trying to
use your experience to make it better for the next person.

But we already have wording there:

http://libvirt.org/contact.html

"It is recommended but not required that you subscribe before posting to
the user and development lists. Posts from non-subscribers will be
subject to manual moderation delays. You can subscribe at the linked web
pages above."

And even on the list page:

https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users

"Subscription is not required for posting; list policy is reply-to-all
so that non-subscribers remain in the loop. First-time posts (whether
you are subscribed or not) are subject to moderation delay. Please keep
list posts under 100k."

Is there something in that wording that we should tweak or make more
explicit, that you would have noticed when reading about the lists?
Maybe float the paragraph about posts being moderated to occur before,
rather than after, the link to the list addresses?
