--- Comment #4 from James Alexander <[email protected]> --- yes archiving publicly would be very bad ;) Sorry for the delay: I know oversight-l is not archived. I do not know for sure about the commons list but, in general, if they get reports or have case discussion there it would be highly preferable for it not to be archived. The main reason is that while the emails will often be archived in the personal accounts of the list subscribers if they are on our servers they are reachable by subpoena and warrants against us. That gives us: 1. More information that could possibly have to be turned over depending on the demands, we limit and fight as much as possible but the best defense is not have as little as possible to turn over. and 2. Significantly more work to do as we go through lists that 'could possibly' have information demanded. In general like to limit anything like that as much as possible, that said I should have perhaps been clearer in my original statement: For legal reasons (generally those above) I would prefer it be turned off/stay off but I'm not forcing it :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
