I'll be away from tomorrow morning early and returning Tuesday. I'll be available by cellphone 24x7, so those of you who have that number could reach me in an emergency. I will also have net access, although I don't intend to be online much. Remember when I had people volunteer for mediation and arbitration committees? I haven't forgotten. Expect initial appointments to those committees on December 2nd, when I get back. If anyone still wants to volunteer, let me know. Remember -- mediation in this context means "attempting to resolve a problem without resort to bans or restrictions of any kind, by helping two parties to a conflict find a mutually satisfactory solution", and arbitration in this context means "more mediation, but this time with ultimate resort to bans or restrictions if absolutely necessary". The idea here is to start working towards a scalable governance solution that preserves and extends our culture of helpfulness, openness, and WikiLove. --Jimbo
