Help-Smalltalk mailing list mirrored on nabble.com?

I've just noticed that a website called nabble.com appears to be mirroring
this mailing list (and a couple of others I'm on, so some of you may find this
message oddly familiar).

http://www.nabble.com/linux-8086-f12404.html

(In fact, they seem to be mirroring all the vger mailing lists.)

Do the list admins here know about this? It all seems rather dubious to me ---
they've even gone as far as creating a publicly accessable profile for all
users. I know that my messages are all public, and I have no objections to
them being redistributed as people see fit, but mirroring an entire mailing
list without asking seems extremely impolite. Not only that, but they may be
trying to retcon us into complying with their suspicious-sounding T&Cs.

Have the admins, in fact, been asked?

(They will also claim to post *to* the list if you register there. I'm not
entirely sure how that works.)

Um, I mean the linux-8086 mailing list, of course. D'oh.

You only found one? I'm "mirroring" it (and many others) on my site as well.  If
you go to http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html you'll find many such archives
listed for the lists.
