I completely agree that the purpose should be exactly as you say "a one-way pipe to get public comments into the TC". However, allowing non-TC members to subscribe is not consistent with this purpose, nor are the current TC guidelines, which say (http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/guidelines.shtml#maillist): "Public comment list: This list is for general public discussion of the TC work."
