Robin has created an archive for the two mailing-lists, which is a very good thing, thanks a lot Robin. In these archives, e-mail addresses are not obscured (as they are in YahooGroups archives for example). I think it would be a good idea to do the same thing. Below are excerpts of a discussion I had with Robin. Robin prefers to leave the addresses in clear. What do you think? I hope this won't start a too long thread...
