By whom, and on whose advice? Why weren't the subscribers to this list informed?
I don't expect you'll be able to answer those questions, Tom, but they're worth
asking.

Well, as no one has answered...
It's related to an incident not long ago where there was a complaint over a
message posted here about a named individual (not going to rehash that whole
issue). The message was objected to (very strongly) and the archives were made
subscriber only; I guess to mitigate the matter (and obviously avoid future
incidents of the same type).
I'm sure others can fill in more details than I can. Just answering the basic
question.
