First of all, I apologise for my first message, because I misunderstood Romaine's announcement: I thought it was a voluntary step down, not a *request* for it. This all the more saddens me, as I have worked briefly with Romaine as voluntary on the first day of Wikimania 2016, and I had the opportunity of seeing first-hand how dedicated and sweet and full of joy and energy as a volunteer he might be. Even if I agree with Lodewijk this is not the place to "overrun" the decision of the T&S Team, or discuss/amend/whatever Wikimania's Safe Space Policy, I'd like to get my message considered as a public display of thankfulness and appreciation for Romaine's work throughout the years, not as an explicit critic to anyone - but to be fully honest, I'm quite puzzled by the decision nonetheless.
