Prior to this change, I was unable to find any way to locally configure the alioth lists I admin to allow all (subscriber,BTS,ftp-master,svn commit) mail through without manually maintaining a whitelist of subscribers. Now all the good mail is getting through, and I don't have to moderate posts (except rejecting the occasional spam) or keep track of subscribers. This was a long-time annoyance of mine, and I'm very happy to see it finally fixed once for all.
