WHIMSY-194: allow PMC members to auto-sub to their private@ lists

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WHIMSY-194

Is it OK to implement this?

i.e. any objections to allowing a PMC member to auto-sub to the
corresponding private@ list?

I assume membership of the PMC should be determined from CI rather than LDAP.

Agreed.  While we may treat committee-info.txt as canonical from a
legal, organizational perspective, this kind of change should use LDAP.
The security risk is more important here.

I have a preference for this being done via LDAP.  Rationale: any
committer can directly update CI.  This would provide a path by which
a committer could gain access to private@; albeit a path that would
leave a very visible audit trail.
