Hello Caroline,
I'm very sorry for what happened back in Capetown and that today you are
reminded of this again through a public mailing list, where the story is
starting to lead it's own life. I can only imagine that you felt the need
to correct this misinterpretation of what happened to you.
I know Romaine for several years and recognise the behaviour you are
describing and even though I know he doesn't mean any harm with it (it's
his enthusiasm that gets the better of him), I do realise it may cause
distress with the other person. If you want to talk to me about this,
please contact me of list. If this was enough for you, please do not feel
you have to send any additional responses.
Hi all,
I was present at the assembly last Saturday and the whole situation is very
complicated. I think, in his emotions to tell his story, Romaine indeed got
two situations mixed up here and the emotional part should not be discussed
on a public list.
Furthermore I know first hand that both the chair of WMNL and WMBE are
involved in the conversations with T&S and the WMF: there is no need for us
to re-review this process, that is still ongoing at the moment.
Please let's close this thread.
Vriendelijke groet,
Ciell

I was forced to step up *today* on this mailing list
because the
description of the WIkimania 2018 incident in the first mail was false: the
claim that "none of us expressed there was a problem" is simply not what
happened.
And by the way this is exactly why the details of stuff like that are NOT
shared publicly. For me the incident was closed and well handled by the T&S
team, I really didn't need a debate where people are expressing their
uninformed, bar room like opinions about the seriousness of the incident or
what should or should not have been done.

Hi Dariusz,
I understand Caroline wanted to add that she was finding difficult that
Romain was not aware of her stress or unease on a specific situation
vaguely described there (without any mention to her at all). And that
later
they have talked about it, and she accepted his
apologies for that in
private. I can't find the least evidence of her being forced to step up
and
expose herself just to clarify that there. As far
as I know, it never was
in question that some people felt uneasy with some behavior there. They
talked about it, apologies were presented, end of story. Or would have
been
end of story, if not for the T&S
interference.

Yes, she claims to have been "forced to step up", but were you able to
find any evidence for that in the OP? Any accusation is automatically
true?

I've been trying to express my frustration with discussing
personal details and stories on a public list. I've clearly failed.
best,
