Hmmm... colored me confused... the ML is for "official correspondence"? What are "official correspondence"?!?  It's a random mailing list on the interweb. 

Let's put things in perspective: 

(1) there is a gemini IRC channel hosted by mozz.us, prominently advertised on the main portal page:

https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/mozz.us/

https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/chat.mozz.us/

(2) Furthermore, there is a nice gemini chat log for it, again linked from that same portal page:

https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/makeworld.gq/cgi-bin/gemini-irc

(3) Furthermore, the IRC channel advertises the fact it's public

And yet, somehow, it's morally wrong to even refer to the public gemini conversation happening on the gemini IRC channel?!?

What gives?
