I don't mind having the EV discussion public, but I agree with Dean about
the CSWG list. Some of the discussion contains pseudo-sensitive information.

The CSWG has discussed sensitive information around threats to the ecosystem
and I would prefer that it not be made public at this time. The results of
these discussions will work their way into the Code Signing BRs which will
be released for public comment in the next few months.

Archives of the code signing and EV improvements mailing lists are currently
private, and these lists aren't set up to allow non-members to subscribe.
Unless someone disagrees with Gerv's (and my) interpretation of the bylaws,
I'll change them to match the public list.

Thanks,

Wayne

That's surprising to me; I believe that the intent was that they would be,
and that (as Wayne notes) the bylaws seem to suggest that view also.
"Managed in the same fashion as the Public Mail List" implies that they are,
you know, public :-) Otherwise it would have said "Management Mail List".

Having them as public also resolves the tension that has been pointed out on
this thread - the "inform the main list" function is then only one of
notification, not disclosure, and people can always go looking for more
information if they want it.

So if they aren't public, perhaps we should fix that.
