I appreciate the consideration, but figured it was a done deal based on
feedback.

My only consideration in keeping them private was the basic, human fact
that people could feel left out. For example, if they read the archives,
thought it was neat, and attempted to subscribe only to be refused. It
is a bit easier to avoid engendering those bad feelings if the archives
aren't public.

Cheers,
