Re: News Flash: Resignation of Executive Board members, delink of zucchini.fl.us.blitzed.org

I am very curious about this. Zucchini voted on the ircd vote, which does
mean they are around participating right? would that not mean she is
indeed not AWOL. You gave two out of the three servers, who (for whatever
reason) did not update their configs, the benefit of the doubt. Why did
you not extend this rationale to zucchini? Instead, I am pretty sure that
they
won't be returning now, and now we are down to one server in the united
states.

I also do not see how the comment that 'almost none' of the admins care
around here. Obviously there have been admins that care, I think all
care.. just some do not have as much time as others. Im not sure how
emergency this was to delink servers and such without an admin vote. I am
pretty sure that the ircd vote was indeed carried out in a swift
manner..so surely there were better options then this. That is usually
what happens when you keep all of the decisions to one though. One persons
judgement is often one sided.


thats all I really have to say about all of this drama.
