Nomcom has the mail list. I did not realize nomcom had special super- secret IETF dispensation for warrant-less secret information disclosure. Ooops - sorry I let folks know they are subject to investigation by Nomcom. Sorry again - that was a U.S.-centric political statement ;-)I guess nomcom has special investigative powers that are not well publicized. I couldn't find the section analogous to the Patriot Act's secret data capture provisions in RFC 3777...I suppose we should amend "Note Well" to include "Subscribing to an IETF mail list may subject your e-mail address for IETF-only internal use, beyond the mail list you have subscribed to. Trust us - it is for your own benefit. Really."IMHO, this particular use really is for our benefit, but I'm massively worried about the slippery slope we're sliding down.
I agree with you. It is better to explicitly ask people.Regarding my original reply in this thread: I think I now understand why you've sent out the message that started this thread, but it could have been clearer on why you were asking for this information.
