This however sounds too restrictive to me. I'm convinced
that the main php development list should stay as open as
possible. The issue of a few misdirected emails should not
serve as an excuse for closing down the main development
list. We should not become an ivory tower.

This manual review effectively implies censorship which is
undesirable in an open environment. I doubt it would serve
the PHP community in any way.
