Especially one that I never use; that's a security nightmare waiting to happen. So I'm not interested in increasing my security exposure by making a Mailman account on yet another site. While I appreciate that administrators would prefer that Gmane readers subscribe, I think their chosen mailing list administration system is not helping their cause.
