My point is that whatever attacks we have suffered have very little to do
with the issue of the archives. The sircam virus has nothing to do with
it at all, and is a much more general problem which is just a matter of
being in cyberspace at all.
Erminia, there is a copyright policy already in place for emails on the
archives, as we retain copyright and moral rights for anything we say
here.
Yes, we are all agreed that they should remain closed for the meantime.
I am not saying we shouldn't think too hard about keeping them closed,
rather the reverse! It's easy to adopt the going thing; I think we
should not, for reasons which I hope I've made clear.
Best wishes
