Mark,

Let me suggest two things about your proposal.  One, pick a more
explicit, more scary name (I know, I suggested this before) than
net.announce.  This is an attempt to try and prevent inappropriate
postings before rather than after they happen (and to reduce your
workload).  Two, I liked your idea (in a personal note) of calling the
group net.mod.foo better because it makes the moderated nature of the
group explicit.  Indeed, it might be worth thinking about having both
net.foo and net.mod.foo where net.foo was the unmoderated version of
net.mod.foo.
