I know in the past there was definitely a great deal of effort to balance
the private reminders with the public to avoid noise and interminable meta-
conversations. My impression is we're still seeing that balancing effort,
so I'm boggled by the comment. A public reminder about three elements of
a couple threads which were heading off the beam seems sane rather than
'hypocritical' or 'arbitrary'. If you've a specific suggestion for what
can be done, the please share it. I think the MLC has been doing a good
job and would be more than open to specific, constructive critique.
Cheers!
