I concur, I'd prefer it to be private.

I would prefer to keep the archives private (for members only).

Or if you are going to make it public take out the authors name and e-mail
addresses.

Well, that was easy -- good thing I kept the archives from the older
version 
:-)  To view the archives, visit 
http://list.oldskool.org/mailman/private/swcollect/ .  Lots of
interesting 
converstations over the years.  Sorry, there's no search facility yet,
although 
the Mailman developers officially have it on their To-Do list.  I could
easily 
install a search facility, but that would be yet another piece of
software to 
maintain and frankly I'd rather wait until Mailman officially does it.

However, you will need your list password to view them; to get a
reminder of 
what your password is, visit 
http://list.oldskool.org/mailman/listinfo/swcollect and scroll down to
the 
bottom of the page, where you'll see a place to enter your email and a
button 
"Edit Options" to press after you've done that.  That will take you to
your own 
personal options for the list, which include getting a reminder of your 
password (and changing it, if you don't like it).

I personally would like the list archives to be public.  Anyone opposed
to 
public archives?

I'm not opposed to such, myself, but I imagine there might be some
people here who would prefer not to have the e-mail address they use
here published.  (My e-mail address is already on every spam list in
existence.)  I see the messages don't generally include the author's
e-mail address, but some of the quoted replies do.  For example, see
http://list.oldskool.org/mailman/private/swcollect/2004-March/004122.html.
Both C.E.'s and Freddie's addresses are in the message text.

I feel that the list should be public, just as it was before.  You never
know when someone is going to search on one of the software titles that we
discuss and then contact us about it.

Yup they show up there alright.

I for one am in favor of keeping this private and old messages viewable to
members only.
Anything that goes to Google is "eternal" or at least archived anyways.
When I have something more "sensible" / "worth of archiving" to say, list
or anything, I'd rather publish it at web myself
(Not meaning that I'd regard the quality / informational value of my mails
being quite that low ;)
but that's not the point. And I'm also not meaning that the general quality
of the list
wouldn't be good, because it is.).

Jim,
 
Weren't the archives already public? I've seen archive pages turn up in Google search results.
