The procedure is, send a well-formatted and error-free mail to
noisebridge-announce@; it'll be held for approval.  If it hasn't been
approved or rejected after 24 hours, you bug noisebridge-announce-owner@
(once a day, not more often) to handle the message.  I have some
confidence that this will flow more freely in the future than it has in
the past.

In related news, please note that we don't allow non-subscribers to post
to our mailing lists.  (For good reason -- this catches a fair amount of
spam.)  Please send mail to noisebridge lists from the address you're
subscribed from, or use the Mailman web interface to add your other
addresses as alternate senders.

Thanks for helping push this through, Rubin.

Anybody -- please feel free to massage this message into appropriate
wiki content.  Maybe a "Mailing Lists" page?
