That's actually more of a problem than not. If I send the e-mail, it's
a *personal* endorsement by me of his project ... and since I haven't
worked on the project, that seems unwise.

Well, he'd get a filtered version of the list. Some of the people on my
list aren't formal journalists, and others are database-only.

Privacy? I am talking about a list of *journalists*.
