I am not the only one that keep my contributions

another member of the LC who has good personal reasons to have the
contributions not publicly available. The reason is that there may be
repercussions in the professional sphere. When this was discussed in the
past, I was and I still am of the opinion that because of this it would be
best to have a confidential list.
This is in no way whatsoever an explanation or justification.
What sort of things are *you* saying that you don't want anyone else
to hear? If not personal information that should be kept confidential,
then what sort of things are you actually saying that will
professionally damage you or someone else?
No, your deliberations should *not* be secret unless there is an
overwhelmingly good reason. You are not providing one.
In conclusion, yes there is confidentiality, the
reason for this is
understood within the committee.
Then I'm sure you can explain it in terms that make it obviously clear
why this is.
