First, because noone said anything else on that thread to ask for it to be 
public.
And then, because people complained after that it was not public, at the 
following meeting.
So we said that we would do differently the following time.

You want everything public, for everything, even for list of voters, and 
emails, and SPI reimbursements, (for things that are something a clear privacy 
and GDPR violations). But now, you want to keep private the people who should 
be external GA members, while, on THIS very thread, people asked for publicity 
and for candidates to speak up for their candidacy.

Also, at that time, I did not bring a list of 20 candidates who are, for the 
most part, inactive.
While asking "trust me, I will get their approval in private, but they will not 
speak on the mailing list".
