GNU sed 4.2.2 released, maintainer resigns
> rms is trying to make some topics (e.g., discussing if something could be used as a GPL loophole) taboo even for gnu-prog-discuss.
Might not be a bad idea, since those discussions could be used after discovery as part of a trial.

If the problem is the discussion about loopholes, than why not just create a second mailing list about that topic and leave the other ones open?

Because what you discuss on a closed list can still be used as evidence.
