My comments would be very similar to those from Alexander Dupuy,
except that the only 'policy' for now is that if you want a list, you
simply have to pay for the disk space. In other words, you have to get
a VM userid... and arrange things with me.
Now to get a VM userid can be a matter of policy in some departments.
This is another story, and has nothing to do with LISTSERV. If a department
accepts to pay money so that someone from its personel can maintain
a list, that's all it takes.
