Obviously, debian-private contains many messages that have no secret
content. This message was another example of this fact. It is wrong
for a person to equate d-private == secret_content. The fact that we
have rules concerning d-private seems to be the fly in the ointment.
Secrecy is only one rule. Perhaps we should be talking about the rules
in general. If a concensus developed about the rules, I think we would
see less bickering on d-private. I doubt if we could eliminate it all,
because flamage was created in our geek community ;-)

P.S. I barely keep up with d-private. So if you want me to see
d-project replies, then CC me because I will not subscribe to this
list too.
