Disclaimer: I'm a dnswl.org admin, although haven't been active
lately. Also, dnswl.org (provider of the data used by RCVD_IN_DNSWL_*
rules) doesn't charge anybody for being listed. They only charge
very high volume users of the data for use of the data, like Spamhaus
and some other major blacklist providers.
As someone listed on dnswl.org, I can confirm this. We did not pay to
get our domain (roaringpenguin.com) or IP addresses listed. And I
assume that if we spam, we will be delisted in a hurry.
So please don't automatically assume that we're spammers just because
we're on dnswl.org. :)

Same here.
I'm not generally a big fan of whitelists (at least not someone else's
whitelists), but the fact I bothered to sign up serves as a good
indicator of the level of trust I have in dnswl.org - and that's trust
that has been earned based on what I see within my own mail flow.
Each to their own of course, but I have no issue with dnswl.org nor it's
default scoring in SA which seems very reasonable to me.
