I don't think it was discussed. I know myself and Bruce Dawson talked it over. At the time, nobody had the time to do anything about it, and it was a quick-and-dirty fix. In all likelihood, we could flip the switch back to "public" again without anyone noticing. >> Again, if this really bothers anyone, I suggest they step forward and >> *do* something about it. > > Yeah, like write a script to strip out email addresses.

If you have your own server, you could put up your own archives with your own Perl script, and likely many would thank you. I would. > Correct me if I am wrong: If somebody were to step forward and put > together a complete/public archive of this mailing list then this > "outside" person would probably contact the new archive maintainer with > unspecified threats? Actually, I suspect the outside person has long since forgotten about the whole thing and wouldn't notice.
