That's simply not true. You and I have both been members of the SteerCo before and much of what we said was never available except in digest form[1]. Which can happen here.
I think we may be at cross-purposes here. I think there is some, understandable, confusion about the goal of the various forums. This probably needs to be sorted out elsewhere.

I totally agree with this but (I think) the LSC and SteerCo groups aren't for announcements. I do agree that having the forums viewable and private is not right and is confusing. I'd like to see them hidden in the same way the email lists were previously hidden.

[1] For example discussions relating to the LEGO Universe parts were kept private for at least a year until we'd decided what to do, had a means to do it, and something to announce. That could not have gone on it public.
