[humanser] privacy of this list

[Jan Bailey]

And in my opinion, it should stay that way. People just have to remember
never put anything on the list that you wouldn't like to tell the world.

It has been our practice to make most of our mailing lists, on 
nfbnet.org "public lists."  This means that the existance of the list 
is public, and that anyone can subscribe, and unsubscribe themselves 
without approval.  It also means that any message submitted to the 
list by a member is automatically distributed, no approval is 
necessary.  Finally, all list messages are archived on nfbnet.org and 
those archives can be searched by anyone.

The primary reason for archiving a list, and making the archive 
publicly available is that others can search for discussions, topics, 
advice, etc., and benefit from discussions that have taken place in the
past.

Our lists have been a great resource to people over the years.
