This isn't really a comment, but more of a question. And maybe a silly one at that, since it's really none of my business. But I'm curious.

How were members of the GLBT forum consulted on whether is should be made public or not? I just glanced in there and noticed that I could now see everyone who's posted there. I'm just thinking that this could perhaps come as an unwelcome surprise if someone has put some things out there (as it were) in the private forum which can now be seen by anyone, including random passersby from the wilds of the internet.

We posted a poll in the GLBT forum that ran for 2 weeks. 13 people voted during that time frame. 8 voted to open the forum, 5 to leave it closed. I abstained and did not comment one way or the other.
