It hasn't changed. Good etiquette has always mandated that you
followed the policies for a particular mailing list, and that the
policies were determined by the list owner.
Examples of mailing lists where messages from non-subscribers are
welcome and encouraged are auc-tex, all the GNU bug-* and help-*
lists, and lists like `sales@acme.com'.
Exmaples where messages from non-subscribers are not welcome are are
most newsgroups, the gcc2 list for gcc developers, and perhaps the
ding list (messages from non-subscribers should probably use the gnus
or gnus-bug lists instead).
