I doubt it.

Nowhere in the message that K posted was there a suggestion that Mike M. had
agreed for the information to be redistributed, so K breached etiquette by
posting it here. (Though K could make a very good case that he was asking on
behalf of the list members, and so they were implicitly part of the
conversation, or that such an agreement had been reached outside of the
quoted context).

If someone, outside of FASA, posted this note to Decipher's message board,
it would be a severe breach of etiquette, and potentially one that puts the
person posting, and K, at a legal liability.

Bottom line: if FASA wants a notice on Decipher's board detailing their
intentions, they'll put one up there themselves.
