Someone complained to you off-list about the amount you're posting to
the list. You immediately forwarded his email to the list. Is this
the best approach?

Well, Oliver Keyes said, 3 days ago:
Speaking as both a volunteer and staff, Anthony, I
have found your
attitude in this conversation and others on the subject to be deeply
unproductive. It would be good if you spent more time asking questions
and less time dismissing people's concerns.
For my part, I think it's inappropriate to, for example, take
someone's statement: "I restrained from expressing publicly any issues
I might have with your own performance; I would love you to not spread
covert allegations on my performace and professional attitude" and
proceed to "it is used as proof she's "literally Hitler"." My
guidance would be to think carefully about the way you're responding
to others and whether you would like to be responded to in that way.
