DFT? or DFC? Anyway, I don't think the issue should be was the ANI decision right or wrong, or even if it was felt to be outwith their proper jurisdiction, but what is the best thing for WMUK and hopefully for Fae. With all the hard work Fae has done and hopefully will continue to do, the ban itself is going to be problem enough for him (and WMUK0, without his staying on in an official capacity. I think it would be in everyone's interest if Fae resigned and was thanked for his hard work by the Board, without any hint of blame being put on anyone.

It would be a grave error for the WMUK board to allow its decision making to be dictated by the whims and fancies of ArbCom.
Again no one is suggesting that. I don't think ArbCom have made any comment on if Fae should remain on the board or remain chair of WMUK.
We could just say that the gamut of possible WMUK reactions runs from OMG to DFT. I'm quite close to the latter view; and I'd be surprised if many arbs disagreed at the personal level.
