Agreed... something like:

Posting allowed by subscribers only (click here to subscribe to the
nomail version of the list)

Does gmane allow this text to be cusomized like that?

No it doesn't... you can subscribe to the nomail version, then use gmane
to read and post.

I for one am glad that posting is only allowed by subscribers. Imho
there was far too much noise on the old OOo lists due to postings being
allowed by non-subscribers.
