[IMC-NYC-Editorial] list membership

[Jed Brandt]

Without dealing with any individuals, I think the lists should be for those
who are using them. The lists are public enough now (do a google search on
your name and see what comes up...)

If they are subscription only now, then I would say that those who are not
editing the website should not have access. I think sending an intro is a
fine idea, but that could also be a pain where we debate people we don't
even know. 

Re Chuck0: Well, we know Chuck already browses our editorial archives. This
is how he "deduced" my online identity, which he then posted onto his
personal blog twice -- along with entirely unprincipled and unacceptable
allegations about me personally. The guy does not operate in good faith and
has hosted calls to disrupt NYC IMC on Infoshop, which he is the moderator
of. He was also thrown out of DC Indymedia. Since then, he helped launch KC
Indymedia. He's a problematic guy who seems to gravitate towards conflicts
which he inevitably attempts to exacerbate. See his threads on NYC about wc

At this point, I don't see him as a misguided ally. Just misguided. That
said, I really don't care whether he reads our sporadic discussions.
