In the event that a decision is made by Randy and/or a majority of the Talkboard that the forum should be read only, I will register and host mailing lists and/or forums for the exclusive use of any Talkboard members who feel that their discussions are better had in private.

As a former TB member, I want to thank you for this offer.

However, based on past history (and Koko's post bears it out) there are apparently one or more members of the TB who do not keep the business of the Board private. As such, your offer would do nothing to stop them from continuning to copy and paste confidential conversations.

While I have said nothing in those private conversations that I would have a problem with anyone seeing, the fact remains they were private.

William
