Rationale:
After installing this module, I was missing things to configure. So I expected the moderation queue to 'just work', something to show up in the moderation queue. Nothing happened, my posts kept getting published normally. I only figured out that I needed to configure something extra (in 'content types') in order to get things working for the average user.
(I've been bitten by this twice. Maybe I'm stupid.... but then again maybe others will be too.)
Proposed solution:
Add a little paragraph to the README.txt (in absence of a separate installation text) that mentiones the 'publishing options' explicitly. Proposal is below. IMHO this will also put the '*important note*' that is in the README, more into context.

[(...) titles of recently added posts.]
After installation of this module, nodes have an extra publishing option called 'In moderation queue'. Generally, each content type which requires moderation, should have this option checked. (see http://example.com/admin/content/types)
[The admin interface allows a user with the "moderate content" permission (...)]

good idea. I'm doing a couple updates to the module now, and this text will be in the next release.
