Marco, with due respect, I first posted a notice on this on March 19. I let it run until April 2. Up to that point, the only member of LangCom (other than me) who had commented substantively was Gerard. Then on April 2 I announced that if I didn't hear anything else from anyone in another week,

If so there has been unanimous consensus to close, as Gerard supported and no one opposed. Thanks, M. El El mar, 10 abr 2018 a las 15:48, Steven White escribió: > Marco, with due respect, I first posted a notice on this on March 19. I > let it run until April 2. Up to that point, the only member

Not so - Steven's proposal on April 2 was to *reject* the proposal for closure. I didn't oppose Steven's proposal as I was happy to keep it open. Fwiw, Oliver On 10-Apr-18 18:40, MarcoAurelio wrote: If so there has been unanimous consensus to close, as Gerard supported and no one opposed. Tha

Hi, Again, Steven (not a LangCom member, and policy says the proposal has to come from a LangCom member) proposed to reject the project based on his own personal --not supported by policy-- personal opinion and ignoring consensus to close the project in the PCP page. Let's assume in areas of not

Hoi, The Language Committee does not have your need to be bureaucratic. Given the amount of work done by Steven he has considerable room to maneuver. So no, I do not agree with your legalistic point of view. Thanks, GerardM On 10 April 2018 at 22:28, MarcoAurelio wrote: > Hi, > > Again, Ste

Look, I'm not trying to make trouble, nor to ramrod my opinions. With thanks to members who supported my approach, I am going to revert the closure of the discussion. Before I do that, I will just point out that I think I have followed the rules up to this point. Gerard's willingness to agree
