Hi all, Late last week, a list of Evergreen 2014 conference attendees was shared on this listserv. The document's footers, developed by Software Freedom Conservancy, indicated that the list was not to be published online. Therefore, on Friday, the message and attached document were scrubbed from the listserv itself, and removal requests were made to the Markmail and GMane archives. Additionally, Software Freedom Conservancy was advised.
While immediate steps were taken, we are unfortunately unable to confirm that our removal requests will be acted on. Recognizing that the sharing of the document was intended as a helpful gesture in response to an information request, nonetheless, this serves as a reminder to be vigilant in the use of open listservs like this one - and particularly when information about persons is involved. With thanks to Ben Shum, Chris Sharp and Kathy Lussier for their quick and comprehensive actions.
