Hi Sandra, I didn't mean that your posting it to this list was gossip, I
was referring to the initial news reports. It doesn't take a lot of
imagination to figure out that there was a secondary motive behind the

In my opinion, it's very much within the remit of this list to share
anything that creates an environment that is not welcoming to new
contributors. It doesn't need to be proven every time, as far as I'm
