1 of 2: Thank you for making the roster
(http://www.nylxs.com/mailman/roster/hangout) accessible to subscribers.
2 of 2: As to the archives, http://www.nylxs.com/mailman/listinfo/hangout
currently says
To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the hangout
Archives. [link] (The current archive is only available to the list members.)
Why not a public archive of postings?
IMO, technical users are more likely to bother making substantial
contributions on mailing lists with public archives, relative to ones
hidden from the public. One reason: If I lavish serious effort on a
publicly archived mailing list, I and others can then cite its URL the
next time the problem comes up, and also third parties searching about
the problem will find and benefit from it.
IMO also, a mailing list with a public archive better supports and
builds the open source community.
(My opinions, yours for a small patent royalty fee and waiver of
reverse-engineering rights.)
