It is disingenuous to suggest that, in posting to a *public* mailing list, the risk that your post will be public is not clear.
I think it's a shame that a trustee doesn't wish to be subscribe to the mailing list that is the primary method of communication between WMUK and the UK Wikimedia community and of discussion amongst the UK community, and I honestly think that such a refusal to engage with the community would hamper one's effectiveness as a trustee.
I applaud and thank the list admins for finally restoring this list to public status - we shouldn't be seen to be discussing things behind closed doors, not least because it goes against the very principles of openness on which the Wikimedia projects and Wikimedia UK were founded, and there was a consensus to do so some considerable time ago.
