Technically there is no privacy issue, as all the information is  
indeed public. We did receive one threat (not from anyone on these  
email list, but another list) to damage our servers so I think we  
have to be careful.

Allowing a simple opt-out should solve this issue.

So, would you like to see another map of postings to pgsql-general?
