I think you're spot-on, and the Brittish would say.  Isn't posting something
to usenet considered to put that posting into the public domain?  While
boost is a mailing list, it's also being mirrored onto an NNTP server, and
onto more than one web-based searchable archive which require no
authentication/membership/agreement/etc whatsoever.
