I suggest to just repeal the 2005 GR, so we don't have any rules on declassification of debian-private by GR. I suggest we rely on common sense instead: The part "-private" in debian-private should make clear (without the need for a GR) that the project should treat the contents of the list private, regardless of the potential public value of what's written on debian-private. Anyone reading something of potential public value on debian-private can always request the original author for permission to quote in public. Note that the original author is the only person who can fully assess how private the message was, since personal limits differ and the relevant privacy aspects may not even be explicitly mentioned in the message. Which is why I seconded this GR proposal. I would also second the GR proposal without article 2, but I think it's good to include it so the GR proposal may win some more votes from DDs who want debian-private to be used for truly private stuff only, and have Debian related stuff discussed on the public mailing lists.
