In the future I recommend joining the Skype meeting that happens every two
weeks it is a suitable publuc/ open to all way communicate that is not
immedtiatly searchable.
The other avenue is via the OSGeo foundation, where we have Andrea as a
GeoServer project officer who can be contacted on sensitive issues. Durning
OSGeo incubation we are always sure to have a bit of this personal contact
as that process often turns up trademark or IP Issues.
