##nomic is an Agoran discussion forum, and has no status at all in B. It should work the same as a-d. OTOH, pledges have to be public now, so the pledge would have to be published to take effect anyway. Agreeing in ##nomic to a non-pledge private contract or to a public contract (with the fact published later) is a different case.
