I just tried subscribing to -current and got this back from majordomo (I've seen it before as well):
>>>> subscribe current@freebsd.org
You tried to "subscribe" to a closed list "current" at Majordomo@FreeBSD.ORG.
We have some closed lists:
Some lists that are aliases for other lists.
The list "test" is an alias for "freebsd-test".
If you tried to subscribe a list of this type,
please subscribe to "freebsd-current" instead.
If you have any questions about the policy of the list
owner, please contact "current-approval@FreeBSD.ORG".
Why does one have to subscribe to "freebsd-current@freebsd.org"
yet can post to just "current@freebsd.org"?
