They’re not lists of hundreds of subproblems that need to be solved, they’re lists of hundreds of subproblems. Large difference. We don’t know which ones need to be solved, nor if the problems are phrased correctly, et cetera. Nor are we making a special effort to keep them secret; we’re just not making an effort to publicize quarter-done brainstorming sessions.
If you want an example of some ideas that I wasn’t bothering to publicize yet, then here: http://willnewsome.wordpress.com/ . I just made that today in response to this discussion post. They’re not polished, but they might be thought-provoking. At some point we’ll probably try to start listing open problems for LW or e.g. mathoverflow people to work on, but we’re not at that stage yet. A few months maybe?
ETA: the angry tone of my first reply was prompted by your use of the words “dangerous” and “security precautions”. Your second comment doesn’t mention these, which is nice :-)

Wha? Your grandparent comment did contain the words “dangerous” and “security precautions”, or are my eyes lying to me again?
