Well, if it is true (and it is true) that the private list is visible to
400+ people (more than this list's subscribers) and that, while mistakes
are surely possible and surely have happened, the private list is not
being abused and discussions that do not belong there are often moved to
the dev list with full context, then I feel it's important to point it
out. You are suggesting a usage pattern of the private list that is far
beyond reality.
Apache OpenOffice is a model of transparency compared to other, even
open source, projects. The importance some people give to private
conversations is really, really exaggerated. But if we continue
discussing this we fall easily in a "conspiracy theory" model, so I
prefer that we get more concrete. On my behalf, be reassured that when I
see a private conversation that ought to be public I will point it out.
+100%
Thank you Simon.
What about actually doing something? You Simon and Dave combined already
have all privileges needed to keep the page with moderators' names
updated if you believe it's really important for you. If you two pledge
to keep it updated, I, for one, will see my primary reason for removing
names (i.e., they are blatantly outdated) addressed. If you are willing
to help, we can surely fix details.
Regards,
Andrea.
