Would it not be clearer to express it by a aporetic contradiction which facilitates to not misunderstand "nobody is in charge" in a reductional logic way:

Mailing lists are asynchronous, which is an element that is a little bit present in a face to face OST meeting (people can comment on the news wall for example, or start other groups as a result of previous discussions). UseNet (the old pre-list internet discussion groups) and MetaNet is a lot more like a F2F OST meeting than this list is. I think the Internet in all it's manifestations mimics OST simply because as technologies both facilitate conversation, interaction and information exchange in similar ways. Most notable is that "no one is in charge" and participants are invited to follow their passion and create stuff. There are lots of examples of "interactive" media that are nothing like OST: phone in radio shows being my favourite example. But I think by and large, when forums and media are allowed to evolve on their own, they look more and more like home.
