I assume because you aren't going to be a listowner on the new list.

But that, in my opinion, is not sufficient to justify their discussing
important list matters in secret. You should have an input on that, as
should everyone else on this list. It is really just elitism, which they
no doubt justify to themselves by saying that letting some people on the
list no about it would simply cause arguments or bad feelings.

I think it is good of these unnamed people to work on getting a hardware
and software setup working for the list. But I think they are being
imprudent and elitist in failing to curtail secret discussions relevant
to the list philosophy on this "test" list.
