This is past history. We don’t need to talk about it any more.

Isn't there anything to do about it? Huh? The impression I was given was that the people who left were tired of playing in the same sandbox with the people they didn’t invite into their new sandbox. There is nothing the PMC can realistically do about that once the decision is made. Again,there is very little to be gained by discussing this now. Ralph
