Maybe we can use it as a TCLUG fundraiser. $1/byte removed! I bet the beer meeting attendance would be impressive if beer were free :) Hehe.. I had a CS professor in college that had a bunch of old usenet postings to alt.support.short. I bet when he was posting in the early 90's he never imagined they'd be archived and searchable 10+years later. Bottom line - gotta be very careful what you sign your name to. I don't see any reason not to munge email addresses, though. I mean, we don't need to help the spammers out here, do we? The other thing is - it's not feasible. Maybe on TCLUG it mostly is, but what if I post my personal TCLUG archive? I know periodically someone on a big mailing list (freebsd-questions comes to mind) will ask to remove a post - but those lists are archived in at least a dozen different places, not to mention private archives. dan On Tue, Aug 31, 2004 at 09:55:55AM -0500, Bob Tanner wrote: > As people get back to school, I think it's a good time to put the following up > for discussion to see of the community has changed its mind. > > How do you want to handle the following requests: > > Please remove my post XXXXX from the mailing list archives > Please remove my email address from the post XXXX in the mailing list archives > > Comments? > > -- > Bob Tanner <tanner at mn-linux.org> | Phone : (952)943-8700 > http://www.mn-linux.org, Minnesota, Linux | Fax : (952)943-8500 > Key fingerprint = AB15 0BDF BCDE 4369 5B42 1973 7CF1 A709 2CC1 B288 > _______________________________________________ > TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota > Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org > Got pictures for TCLUG?
