Re: Remove IP address

[Ali Reza Hayati]

Hello everybody,
I hope you're well.

Followed the messages you guys CCed me in. Thank you for following this 
issue and discussing it.

I was wondering if you reached a conclusion. I didn't see any conclusion 
or result in the messages but I'm not on the list so I may miss some 
messages.

This is not on behalf of GNU; this is just my personal opinion on the 
matter.

I believe no matter what the policies say that what we an or can't 
publish, or how the requestor should've been careful about requestor's 
data, we should make some exceptions sometimes.

I don't think the system has a major problem. If the requestor sends an 
email message to someone, that data will be visible to other people too, 
so someone can easily access to this data without even digging in GNU 
Debbugs pages.

I believe that IP address is the server's, which obviously is something 
public otherwise wouldn't be used for sending email messages.

However, if the requestor is asking for this data to be removed, if it 
doesn't harm anyone or anything, we should help perse to get what perse 
wants; in this case, removing IP address.

If you can edit that page, and remove that IP address, please do.

Again, please let me or GNU webmasters <webmasters@gnu.org> know about 
the issue. If you contact webmasters, please include "[gnu.org 
#1659234]" in the subject.

Best.

Once again, what I said was my personal opinion and this email doesn't 
represent GNU on the matter.
