And so were the discussions about the official status of the "Drupal" site as a 
long-term solution. 
Also, we identified the 23 roles right here, and also discussed the next steps 
to be taken for them.

Look, I posted two specific posts to understand SC's position on Drupal site.
And I can mention now that it was a difficult task to get a simple "yes" or 
"no" answer.
Only after getting satisfied did I volunteer. 

Then I volunteered to collect the stakeholders requirements.
The 23 roles were identified on this very mail list. 

I do not understand how a position on the Drupal site can be reversed without a 
reason.
As mentioned above, work was being planned, apparently with SC's blessings. 
We did see a difficulty ahead in getting the stakeholder's responses.
But we always thought we are helping SC by striving even harder.

Then why don't you read the mails posted right here?? 
Others from the SC did know about this, and didn't object then.

Granted that in any community an apex body has to take the calls, and we have 
to honor them.
But surely it cannot be so haphazard?

Anyhow, it would be pointless to discuss this any more, I guess.
