Instead, I believe that this is something that we each must be responsible to ourselves and to one another for maintaining. > Any message that you think should be public, send to iaep (blipping out names > if necessary). I wouldn't want such a monitor to publish documents that the audience couldn't agree among themselves to publish -- that would be neither transparent nor consensus-based. On the other hand, if the audience can agree to publish the materials, then why not just send the messages to iaep@ in the first place? > That'll prevent us form inadvertently keep secrets from the community. More likely, it will lead people who are on the fence about transparency and consensus-based decision-making to communicate by means of a different side-channel than sl...@. Perhaps a better solution would be to find ways for people who are on the fence about transparency to adjust to its requirements while still achieving their true ends?
