everything you are doing on   the internet is logged somewhere
on a webserver.  As soon as you make   a post somewhere (for
example in a public forum or on a public   mailinglist) it is
usually visable on the internet.  Meaning Google   (or any other
search engine) will index the site and you can search   for it
...  Why are the PC-BSD mailinglists "open/public"?  Because
this is Open   Source.  And we believe in openess of all kind.
Therefore also in   making PC-BSD related discussions available
to the public.  "The   public" also including people not
subscribed to our mailinglists.  Best regards.   Johann Kois
