I would like to say to the moderator team - especially Sarah who now
decided to create a "WWC" initiative (and I'm now requesting her to change
the name) - to fuck off and try to do half of what Laura is doing for women
in Wikipedia..
I'm with Laura in this. If this list isn't welcoming to women from outside
USA, it failed the propose to exist. If isn't a safe place for women, it
has no reason to exist.

I am sorry to see Laura go. Her leaving the
list was not requested
by the mod team here, and was not the desired or expected outcome of
my interaction with her. She's welcome back at any point that she
would like to resubscribe.
Sarah and I have recently been approached by people in private
indicating that Laura's posting style has made them uncomfortable
participating in public discussions on this list. After talking with
Sarah, I sent Laura an email asking her to step back and consider if
her messages could make others uncomfortable before sending them out,
and asking her to take into consideration other people's feedback when
they offer it. (She's not the only member who we've sent a similar
message to.)
