++1 the SC archive url [1] should be indicated somewhere on the 1Net site
since the particular list is hidden[2] on the mailman landing page

I think this may also be a good Idea, although it may create more
administrative responsibility on both sides; the read only users who are
already complaining about the heavy traffic on discuss at 1net.org and the
list moderators who will now have to manage subscription requests and
posting bounces. Also it may not ensure proper coordination as most of the
read only users may start cross posting the communications of SC
un-officially. In the long run, i did say there are more cons than pros on
this item

Cheers!

2. May have been hidden to avoid un-solicited subscription request and
reduce confusion.

Thanks in advance
