The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Roger B.A. Klorese" <address@concealed>]

No, you're right.  But for our little non-profit to implement a full-on 
SSO service so that a single list-owner can verify that his subscribers 
are really members of his list before allowing them to access his 
profile website, and could possibly also avoid having to log into his 
website to do so, seems like staggering overkill.  99.9% of our 
list-owners would have no desire to do any of this, and we support large 
"casual" communities of non-tech-savvy subscribers.
