Correction. The IDNO did not "adopt" anything yet. 7 SC members voted for
ORSR rules to be ratified by the membership. The rest of the 21 was no
longer around.
The initial steering committee did not have a mandate to impose rules on
the membership.
The membership as a whole will shortly vote on which civil discourse rules
will be adopted in the Charter.
These may be the ORSC rules, or they may be the IDNO's own rules.
It is up to the membership and nobody else.

No members of the SC "resigned en masse". Two members who resigned
specifically expressed having enough (see: "enough already"
