Nice info, but I like UncleVanya's f8 a bit better. The moon is fairly dark, especially compared to the earth (for which "sunny 16" was formulated).
A bit more on focusing on the moon: if you are lucky/careful, and depending on your focal length, you may be able to focus directly on the center of the moon or wherever it is lit up (using center spot focus, of course!). If that doesn't work, try the illuminated edge - that's about as contrasty as you can get, which the autofocus system likes.
I prefer using magnified live view for the final touch up, with manual focus selected.
As noted, use a tripod if at all possible.
