Or, to put it another way - Neil and I made a small number of edits to a document which had previously been worked on for 14 months, which we then put to the board to review and vote on. It should be noted that the board group includes every active member of the code of conduct working group, with the exception of Ben. So "without including the rest of the WG" translates to "without including Ben". As already stated, this was a direct response to repeated unacceptable behaviour on Ben's part. There is no formal process for the code of conduct working group, so talk of "authority" and "legitimacy" is moot. However, I do believe that the proposal that has been sent to the board is a fair reflection of the group's work as a whole, and that's the important thing. > As > such, I do not consider the current documents to be a legitimate > proposal from the WG that the board could even start to consider. The proposal that has been sent to the board is the result of the entire group's work for 14 months. It is also the outcome of the community consultation that we ran. The vast majority of the working group will have the opportunity to review the proposal before it goes to a vote.
