I know in the past there was definitely a great deal of effort to balance the private reminders with the public to avoid noise and interminable meta- conversations. My impression is we're still seeing that balancing effort, so I'm boggled by the comment. A public reminder about three elements of a couple threads which were heading off the beam seems sane rather than 'hypocritical' or 'arbitrary'. If you've a specific suggestion for what can be done, the please share it. I think the MLC has been doing a good job and would be more than open to specific, constructive critique.
