Chris, There is a standing policy that everything sent to the private list must begin with a justification for it being private. Other board members can and often do reject these justifications and the discussions move to the public list. However, I agree that it would be good to make public exactly what justifications are allowed and ensure that any private conversations fit into one of these categories. _______________________________________________ board mailing list [email protected] http://openid.net/mailman/listinfo/board
