Hi all,
Just to make clear I don't have any issue with redistribution or/and
public archiving of mails. Just as a mailing list has the right to
whom to give access to the mailing list & who not I think its fair for
a person to decide how whatever content s/he makes should be under
some license or not. AFAIK one of the powers of the mailing list is
attribution as to who said what, where, in what context,at what time.
If I'm safe-guarding  whatever I feel I have to contribute I don't
think its trivializing any issue.
