Maybe, but that is not the point. The point was that it was hidden and
no one bothered to follow the ed policy.  

I know that sometimes it's hard to get to email etc but that excuse
doesn't apply, because according to our ed policy, this list MUST be emailed 
before hiding a 'non-spammer's' post. Democracy and all that stuff.

I don't want to be a rule stickler, but you can't just ignore the
process and hide whatever you don't like [not that I am saying you hid
it].
