Hi all,

That being said, I still believe it is important to track *any*

don't
forget them, and have the opportunity/reminder resolve them, even
if it
takes a while. I encourage you to add such issues that you see to the
general issues page:
http://microformats.org/wiki/issues
Okay, I've done my best to follow the format there and add a formal
issue around "Governance":
http://microformats.org/wiki/microformats-issues#Governance_Issues
Hopefully others can expand/clean it up as necessary.
For the record, while I completely agree with Colin that we would
benefit from a more transparent (and perhaps slightly gentler)
process, I deeply appreciate Tantek's courage, humility, and
graciousness in attempting to deal with this situation. I too have
had to moderate mailing list disputes [1], and I know how difficult
it is to find the right balance between helping people feel "safe"
and ensuring they feel "free." We may never get it right (so I
second the call for a meta-list :-), but I feel very privileged to be
part of a community that hasn't stopped trying.
