Hallo, Hans-Christoph Steiner hat gesagt: // Hans-Christoph Steiner wrote:
I don't mean to be annoying or anything, but I don't understand the problem here. What harm is done if a public list like this is archived in other formats? Anyone can subscribe, the archives are freely searchable and downloadable on the iem.at site. I am having a hard time seeing any violation of privacy if someone mirrors the public archive.
I think, posting pd-list mails to a blog site is something different from the official (iem) and semi-official (elists.com, gmane) archives.
Did you take a look at the respective blogger site? http://pdlist.blogspot.com/ Did you read the comments? It's pure blogspam, which is riding piggyback on content generated by the pd community. This definitely is not a context I would want my texts to appear, so I'm glad IOhannes brough this up again and finally suspended what I consider exploitation of the pd-list.
Plus: blogger.com is not even taking the small anti-spam measurements gmane uses: You can find verbatim email addresses in the blog entries, whereas gmane at least semi-hides it with <at>.
Ciao
