There are several Open Source/Free Software projects with private mailing lists and IRC channels including the Linux kernel, the Debian project and many of the larger GNOME sub-projects. Mono isn't an exception. Mostly they're used to discuss 'public relations' with individual users which would be impolite or encourage rumours if posted on a public list. The fact that there are several external contributors on these lists acts as a check that nothing too nefarious will be discussed on them. There is no conspiracy! :-) -- Pokey the Penguin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
