Ryan has told me, and I think the list should know, that his
"resignation" is actually because Jacqueline and Louis asked him
to resign immediately.
Here are Ryan's emails in the recent threads:

I encourage everyone to read them and decide if you would have
told this volunteer to resign. This is especially relevant to
MarCons, as you must be aware of the implications in making a
proposal like Ryan's.
I am shocked and saddened by this turn of events. I have always
been impressed with Ryan's integrity, ability and dedication. OOo
can't afford to keep losing people of Ryan's calibre.
Regards, Jean
