I'm not fond of the last part. The times when people have approached the
TC privately have almost invariably been because they were raising issues
that, if raised in public, would turn into giant flamewars. Frequently
the subject line of that message is sufficient to cause exactly the
outcome that people were trying to avoid. In fact, since it comes devoid
of context, it might even be worse!
