AFAIK, his name was never mentioned on the list.
I thought Durova's post was quite explicit about his user name. What
list are we talking about?
What's important is to remedy mistakes as
quickly as possible and to
try not to make them again. Of course, there'll be honest disagreement
at times about how to do that.
Indeed. My main concern at this point is that there seems to be a
philosophy prevailing that 'the general public just misunderstood what
happened, therefore we don't need to actually change anything and it's
the public's responsibility to get it straight.' Even if the system
really _did_ work wonderfully behind the scenes and this was all just
one monumentally dumb or bizarre screwup by one lone admin the fact that
the general public refuses to believe that is something we need to find
ways to fix.
Bryan,
If what was said is the truth, and is still not believed, where to do go
from there as far as an explanation is concerned? And, if we don't find
"ways to fix" it, what do you believe will happen?
