My full name and email address open to all on web?
I did a search of my email address in IE8 - to see what information is out there identifying me to everyone!
I found this link:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-dev/201001.mbox/%3C1A60AD0697A8964EA981A8DE6F1DAE0908F8FCA0@BGGWRMB01.bge.ie%3E
and got my full name and work email address in an apache archive!
Was it intentional to post the archives up on the web for all to see - in which case, how do I get this article removed?
Regards
Robert Beattie

This email that you just sent that I am replying to has your name and email address in it. It will be archived. I'm not sure how it identifies "you". I'm not sure how you are expecting your email/name to be private when you post it to a publically accessible email list.

Yes, all users@ and dev@ lists are public.

You can't. (And it's archived in at least six other 3rd party archives)
Sorry.

We (Hyrum) also clarified the web site, adding an explicit mention of
the mailing lists' being public and archived.

For the record, the ASF policy on public archives is available here:
http://www.apache.org/foundation/public-archives.html
I suggest you read it, but suffice it to say that by posting your mail
to a public mailing list, you disclosed your email address and other
public information. Attempting to redact that information from the
Internet is an exercise in futility.
Best,
