[council] Re: [ga] Wanton Refusal of Names Council

["Roberto Gaetano" <ga_list@hotmail.com>]

Just a question:
Can't these issues be solved among Chairpeople+Secretariat without needing 
public proclaims on a public list? What is the real purpose of this post?
Moreover, it seems to me that everything is being originated by a 
misunderstanding, as the request is to still let the message through 
[ga-abuse], but block it on [ga], which should not have additional policy 
decisions by the GA. Hence a polite private exchange could solve it.
Incidentally, we created specialized lists to limit the general traffic on 
the GA main list. To increase the traffic on the main list with messages 
that should stay private is going in the opposite direction.

Regards
Roberto
(P.S.: what on earth means "Wanton"?)
