Jean, what was your proposal to improve FSF? Aaron Paul Deb and I believe a few others have had their ideas come through via this list.

Thus it works by its legal statutes, not by public decisions. Though management listens. But they are not bound by anything from outside but law.. It is not democratic, and not necessarily transparent. Financial reports are transparent by the law, what is happening inside and internally is their own business. Matters are straight that way. Me or you, as not being on board, not having any votes, we can discuss all day long, it is not in our authority, and it is useless discussion that will not convert even one computer to free software. > “RMS created non-safe spaces at both MIT & the FSF.

It is very interesting, that my proposal on how to improve the FSF was rejected by moderator, but this type of yet another bullying passes through. How about moderator to tell us on the list, why is this allowed, and my writing not allowed? Why you not tell to this person "to take it up with FSF" like how you told to me "to take it up with FSF"? Moderator should not be there just to delete and block some of emails and pass the others, that is unfair, as you are moderating it politically, thus passing other emails related to FSF. ___ _ _ __ _______ _____ _ / _ \ _ __ ___ | |__ (_) __ _ \ \ / /_ _| ___| | | | | | '_ \ / _ \ | '_ \| |/ _` | \ \ /\ / / | | | |_ | | | |_| | | | | __/ | |_) | | (_| | \ V V / | | | _| |_| \___/|_| |_|\___| |_.__/|_|\__, | \_/\_/ |_| |_| (_) |___/ Jean References 1. mailto:stationa...@gmail.com
