I don't think the best way to work better with RH IS is to bypass RH IS (:  If 
we come up with a way to determine who within Fedora space is allowed to 
request mailing lists, and come up for a way for RH IS to verify this, then 
it should be fine.  I think Matt Domsch has done some things like this for 
getting new mirrors signed up.  This doesn't sound like a hard problem to 
solve.
