Before reading your mail, I've added the following blurb to the
subscription text on list.debian.org

------
Please note that all mails sent to our mailing-lists are supposed to
be archived publically on http://lists.debian.org/ with only a few
exceptions.

If somebody wants to rephrase it, go ahead, but better pester me
directly instead of group-replying to the list.
