Re: Nabble has nabbed our messages

I agree completely: content from membership-specific lists should not
be made publically available, at least not without the full agreement
of at least the majority of the list, and even then this should only
be done by the list organisers/admins themselves.
My hope is that the list admins unsubscribe any known Nabble members
and ask for the entire WWP list archive to be removed from Nabble's
servers.
