Re: [ga] Re: (6) What's In It For Me? - Jeff Williams

[Eric Dierker <ERIC@hi-tek.com>]

Gentlmen,

I am deeply troubled by this entire problem.  I believe that we must not look at
the individual but the GA when trying to resolve this issue.  After the flury of
activity of the last 24 I believe it prudent to evaluate this situation over some
time.

A censor or other ban without the right of some sort of appeal is a little
repugnant to the notions of fair play.  However on the other hand we must maintain
order in order to be productive.

Today, heat of the moment and exhaustion obviously had a negative effect on the
two involved men.

I thank you Mr. Alvestrand for slowing the moment down and not taking any rash
actions.  Please let us set up some type of process to handle this and subsequent
problems of this nature.

Sincerely
