Linux Australia is committed to protecting the personal information provided to the organisation through membership, events and all other activities, per our Privacy Policy [1]. As such, we will not be releasing contact details for any members as this would be a breach of privacy.

Hello.

In the context of the above message, if a member is allowed to request 
and obtain, a list of members and the contact details of of the listed 
members, for the purpose of contacting the members, are the members 
allowed to request, and, have published to the affected members, the 
name of the member who made the request, and, any reasons given for the 
making of the request?

If so, can the name of the member who made the request, and, any stated 
reasons given for the making of the request, please be announced to the 
members, using the same medium as the above notice?

Thank you in anticipation.

I am willing for a copy of this request message to be sent to the 
members, if the council deems it appropriate.
