Thanks, but it seems you need an invite to do that for cvn-developers (and emailing cvn-developers+subscribe doesn't indicate that it's asked for an invite, it just gives a delivery failure). I've had trouble with group+subscribe@ before for non-google accounts - google accounts emailing group+subscribe would get subscribed but non-google accounts silently wouldn't - but I never found the cause of the trouble.
