The archives of the arbcom-l mailing list are seldom consulted, so could probably be disposed of after a month or two. We need space where we can talk candidly about real or imagined problems. That's how we sort out the real from the imaginary.

"We need space where we can talk candidly about real or imagined problems."
Yes, granted - but why secretly as the default?
"real or imagined problems" = real people
I still don't like it - talking about people behind their backs with no right of reply, or ability to correct gross inaccuracies, but I would be a lot happier if such talk was not archived.
Archives fall under the principle of "Freedom of Information"
