Hi all,

With only two weeks left in Lent, I still haven't done enough penance, so I figure I need to up the ante. :-)

I didn't see any response to my governance proposal <http://urlx.org/ microformats.org/56ce1>, so let me make a more specific request. I for one fully supported the decision by the list administrators to place Andy under moderation, given his behavior at the time. However, Andy has since done a heroic job of making many useful contributions despite the painful constraints he's been forced to live under; and, as far as I know, he's avoiding commenting in an off-topic manner.

Therefore, I believe that the administrators ought to either:

a) remove his moderation constraint

or

b) publicly state why they are not removing it

I am all for strong leadership, but I also believe it must be publicly accountable to avoid degenerating into tyranny.

Does anyone else agree?

Respectfully yours,
-- Ernie Prabhakar

P.S. Again, I apologize if this is off-topic for this list, but I couldn't find any better place to air my concerns, which is why I think we need a dedicated list for such matters

If anyone can suggest a better mechanism, please let me know.
