I would like to discuss the current status/policies regarding the SLOBs mailing list. We have a somewhat ad hoc mechanism for adding observers to the list. I would submit that this policy actually encourages us to use the closed list at times when the public lists would be more appropriate. I would recommend we eliminate all observers from the list and use it only for things that necessity of the protection of the privacy of third parties require a private discussion. The more limited the list, the less likely we'll use it. I would recommend that the ombudsman be privy to the list as well. As far as sending email to the list, it would be nice to enable send access to all members of the community. But I am not sure how to configure mailman to do this.
