The list is private. It has a restricted list of members. Those who are 
on the committee. This is logical (and good).

I am not on that committee, so do not have access to the emails (which 
again, is logical). However, when there is a discussion, if one of the 
person in the discussion is not put in the cc, that person misses part 
of the discussion.

Non members emails are naturally moderated. So, we do not know when our 
emails are read.

A good idea would be that at least board members emails (as well as some 
other people) be automatically approved.

As I said...growing pains ;-)
