I move from sympa 3.4.4.3 to 5.2.b

I suggest you install a stable version instead of 5.2b because lots of things have been fixed in 5.2 and 5.2.1 in the meanwhile.

I used "privateandeditorkey" as send parameter for moderation for some lists

Now the behavior of this option has changed:
                                                        3.4.4.3                    5.2b
Moderator (editor)                       moderated                  directly send
Subscriber                                    moderated                  moderated
Non Subscriber                              rejected                      rejected

The previous behavior was not the expected behavior ; rules order have been fixed, see
http://sourcesup.cru.fr/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/sympa/src/etc/scenari/send.privateandeditorkey?r1=1.10&r2=1.11

If you want to get back the previous behavior, just write a custom send.privatekeyandeditorkeyonly that would look like this :

is_subscriber([listname],[sender]) smtp,md5,smime	   -> editorkey
is_editor([listname],[sender])     smtp            -> editorkey
is_editor([listname],[sender])	   md5,smime       -> do_it
true()				   smtp,md5,smime  -> reject(reason='send_subscriber')

- Is there any clear documentation about "send parameter" anywhere ?

Here is the documentation we provide : http://www.sympa.org/doc/html/node21.html#SECTION002138000000000000000
You should also check the documentation for the authorization scenarios mechanism : http://www.sympa.org/doc/html/node14.html

The title of a scenario describes what it does ; if you want to learn more, have a look at the scenario rules.

- Can I use "privateandeditorkeyonly" even it doesn't appear in send parameter menu? (by editing config file ....)

As I wrote above, you need to write your own ; we can't provide all the possible scenarios but hopefully the scenario syntax are powerfull.
