I have not followed all discussions about this so sorry if you already
got this information from someone else.

Making private discussion threads public is *not* ok, unless everybody
who wrote something in those threads provides explicit permission to
do that. Which is usually not practical for a whole thread, but people
could give permission for specific parts.

Summarizing the relevant parts of a private thread to a public list
can be ok if you're cautious about not violating the private nature of
the original discussion. In case of doubt, ask on the private thread
before proceeding.

That's all common sense, I just wanted to clarify as there might be
some confusion around this now.
