I think you make the MELPA rules sound easier, and our rules sound
harder, than they actually are. I suggest to scan the archives for
proposals to add new packages to ELPA, where you will see neither the
need to subscribe to this list, nor the need to create patches and
email them, nor "all wrong" responses with a certain "tone". At least
not in general.
