If Durova "simply screwed up", fine,
her bad. But if there's a group of
like-minded editors who were colluding on this and she just happens to
have had the bad luck to take the fall, I don't want the rest to meekly
and secretively creep back to whatever they were doing behind closed
doors that resulted in this happening. I want to make sure this attitude
and this bad process is rooted out.
Ha! You want to see the "WTF????" messages that went round
afterwards. I mean, we like Durova and are doing our best to help
her get over this, but really, we have been pretty blunt with her.
Yes, that actually would be quite reassuring. The lack of information
about what's going on over there has IMO been the main force driving
this controversy beyond the one particular action Durova took.
