Hi all, I do not understand why the Community Council was copied on this. Based on context from the Ubuntu Flavors Matrix room, this was the result of a mistake in operations, not an intentional change. Even if it had been an intentional change though it would not have been a code-of-conduct violation, and given that it was a mistake it's *definitely* not a code-of-conduct violation. Escalating things to the CC this quickly is not helpful, and we don't have a desire to surveil conversations that we have no reason to be involved in as of yet, so copying us on things like this makes very little sense (especially when there's a public list that is copied on this that we can look through if a CoC violation does occur and we need context).
