Just needs a "beware of the leopard" sign :-) Seriously, there's a community issue here. Those of us not on the PMC discovered accidentally that apparently harmless updates Kay proposed -- and was already implementing -- had been vetoed for undocumented reasons by unknown voices in a secret venue. Doesn't sound like the Apache Way. I believe the continued discussion is because of that and the strong reaction to asking about it, rather than the details of how and why to list the moderators (which to me still seems obvious, uncontroversial, modestly beneficial and best done simply). It begs the question why that reaction happened. S.
