t the moment it is not clear if they have officially posted the show or not, so it is not appropriate to discuss the issue at this point. The host remains the copyright holder of the content and needs to be given the opportunity to decide what they wish to do

It is also a dangerous path to go down allowing the Janitors to deem a show inappropriate to be scheduled for any reason. Even a valid technical reason could be considers censorship. Then you get to defining "rules" for valid technical reasons, and as we saw with the "scheduling rules" - they simply do not work.
In this situation, we have no information to make an informed decision. We have to trust the Janitors claim that there is a technical reason to do so. The vote is basically a confirmation that we trust the janitor's judgement on what the technical reason is. If we are taking a hands off approach to all issues to avoid any taint of censorship, then we should not postpone any shows unless the host has agreed. Following the above argument, I don't consent to move the show. Please don't take this as a lack of trust in the Janitors. As my first response puts much trust in them. I can see Ken's worry of just moving things without a notice, and I think moving it with a post to the mailing list that it is being moved for technical reasons would give: one, a chance for someone to object, and two, provide an audit trail if an issue of censorship does come up. Say every other post by Rho`n suddenly gets postponed ;) I feel at this point a vote doesn't provide much more protection from a censorship claim than just a post to the mailing list that it is going to happen. --Roan _______________________________________________ Hpr mailing list Hpr@hackerpublicradio.org http://hackerpublicradio.org/mailman/listinfo/hpr_hackerpublicradio.org
