People who oppose the ban: Are you aware of all aspects and things Fram has
done? Do you have the full picture? It's really saddening to see how fast
people jump to conclusion in page mentioned in the email. I personally,
don't know what happened so I neither can support or oppose the ban. As
simple as that.
So what should be done IMO. If enwiki wants to know more, a community body
can ask for more information, if body satisfy two things:
- They had signed NDA not to disclose the case
- They are trusted by the community
I think the only body can sorta work with this is stewards but not sure
(Does ArbCom NDA'ed?)

Lack of transparency from the WMF, whatelse is new.
I'm currently under a funding ban secretly decided (by who?) based on a
false accusation, without providing any evidence. Until now I'm waiting for
an explanation from the WMF. So, this sort of attitude doesn't surprise me
at all.
It is very unfortunate that the WMF apparently thrives in this kind of
medieval obscurity, the opposite of the values of the Wikimedia Movement.
Matter for Roles & Reponsibilities.
Best,
Paulo

Thanks for this.
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one dismayed by the unilateralism and
lack of transparency.

The only non-response excuse from the WMF [2] was that "local
communities
consistently struggle to uphold not just their own autonomous
rules but the Terms of Use, too.” even though there were no complaints
on-wiki nor to Arbcom privately.

I did send email to Fram earlier today asking if they had any public
comment, no reply as yet.
