Hi all There are a few independant issues: * iam concerned about the rise of bitter hatred on the mailing list.
* Whoever has the majority in the GA will by extension have the majority in the CC and the CC then may act with bias accordingly. * After over 3 weeks of attacks in some threads, and yesterday even a key admin offering his resignation, I realize, this not only affects time very significantly but also starts affecting my physical health and the health of the project. Even though all CC members have done their best to reduce conflicts. * Before the CC there was overwhelming agreement that hostilities are a problem, and the CC even after multiple iterations has not succeeded in really solving it. No matter on which side of some of these "discussions" you are, they cost everyone a lot of time, and many mails violate the CoC. First i have two requests. If you see some unfriendlyness, speak up, talk to the person either in public or private. (always choose private, in case your mail may be seen as offensive) this is likely much more effective than a ban to result in both sides being happy. And no need to even be a CC member. If you have not been involved in any "fights" And are known by some GA members (so they would vote for you) And belive you can help us keep the team together as one and restore peace (i mean not sit there and do nothing but also not just ban people which has soured some things too, but then sometimes a ban is the correct action) Please become a candidate. For the case where both community and community committee fail. We always had moderators and admins even long before we had a community committee. Id like to appologize for my inaction in the past as one of the admins. I will try to do my best not to let hostility/provocations/trolling/insults/... run wild from now on. And id like to also ask the other moderators who until now just seperated spam from non spam in the ML moderation que. To also keep an eye open for toxic mail. thx -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Homeopathy is like voting while filling the ballot out with transparent ink. Sometimes the outcome one wanted occurs. Rarely its worse than filling out a ballot properly.
