Ooh, DKIM vs. list managers again.

I don't think that anyone other than the management of ietf.org gets to 
decide what their signing policy is.  There are zillions of ways that 
mailing lists decide what gets posted to a list.  If you like their list 
management policy, you can trust their signatures.  If you don't, you 
don't.
