Re: GR proposal: give up on declassifying debian-private (Re: General Resolution: Declassifying debian-private results)
I think it would be best to seek further sponsors for my proposal.
If you like my version, or would like to see it on the ballot, please
second it.
Here it is:
> Formal proposal for amendment to Gunnar's GR: delete all, and replace
> with:
>
> Title: Acknowledge difficulty of declassifying debian-private
>
> 1. The Debian Project regrets the non-implementation of the 2005
> General Resolution titled "Declassification of debian-private list
> archives". That General Resolution is hereby repealed.
>
> 2. In case volunteers should come forward: Permission remains for the
> list archives (of any messages, whether posted before or after
> this resolution) to be declassified, provided that the
> declassification process is at least as respecting of the privacy
> of posters to debian-private as the process set out in the 2005
> General Resolution.
>
> 3. Furthermore, the Debian listmasters remain empowered (subject to
> the usual consultation processes within the Debian project) to
> revise the rules governing the privacy and declassification of
> messages to -private. This includes making measures to make
> declassification more widely applicable, or easier to automate.
>
> 4. But, any weakening of the privacy expectations must not be
> retrospective: changes should apply only to messages posted after

> 5. In particular, we reaffirm this rule: no part of a posting made to
> -private, which explicitly states that it should not be
> declassified, may be published (without its author's explicit
> consent). This rule may be changed by the listmasters (para.3,
> above), but only for future messages (para.4, above), and only
> following consultation, and only with ample notice.
>
> 5. Participants are reminded to use -private only when necessary.
