I thought that that particular list was for board discussion only by board members only. Hi Marc, terribly sorry if we ever gave that impression. Admittedly, the entry on http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/ was worded like that (Public discussions of the Board of Directors), but I'm rather certain it should read List for focused interaction of the public with the Board of Directors instead. Page changed accordingly, board-discuss in Cc: in case there's disagreement. ;) All of that notwithstanding, point taken to spread the word a bit wider next time such things are on the agenda.

Otherwise you would not get the following message when you try to post to that list on Nabble Authorized Users Only Only authorized users can proceed in this area. You can use the form below to send a request to the administrators. Access Request Explain to the administrator(s) why you want to access this restricted area. I particularly like the part Explain why So I guess it was not meant for interaction of the public. Maybe interaction of the members at best...

It is not a misconfiguration. It is a different configuration. I think you are misinterpreting the words Public discussion list for the Document Foundation board of directors. It is exactly what it means: a discussion list FOR the TDF BoD members ONLY with open contents (anyone can read for the sake of transparency), but not open participation. The Discuss list is for open participation.

I guess what Thorsten means is that in the case of the board discuss list Nabble might be misconfigured. Jean Weber and David Nelson posted on it less than a month ago, so at least it works with the standard mailing list usage. Besides the BoD always intended to make this list a list where members can raise gouvernance related question so it cannot be intended to be read only for non board members. Best, Charles.
