NANOG Channel Archives and Editorializing

Folks, I've received periodic requests from individuals who feel somehow slighted by posts contained in the NANOG archives. As you may or may not know, we host a MHonArc'd version of the list as a Searchable archive of web pages and an IE/NEtCaster Channel. A request came in today to remove a post that listed a number of hosts open for relaying. The individual asked me to remove the message so as to minimize the damage it causes the owners of the listed relays, including himself. Since these are generated from the flat archives at Merit, I'm loath to start editorializing. What do folks think? Should we edit the archives to remove "dangerous" information, or let them stand on their merits (no pun intended) and let the roaches scatter in the light? Respond privately unless you absolutely feel a need to start a discussion on it. I'll post the decision I come to on the list.
