Perhaps we have been. I've a strong belief in trying to work with all parties involved to try and resolve a situation, rather than provide a knee-jerk reaction which may have even worse long term implications. There has been quite considerable effort behind the scenes, but hindsight might indicate that there could have been better ways forwards. > That's not to say though that some soul-searching isn't called for > here, and I urge all members of the SC to engage in some heavy > introspection and to do what they believe is honorable in light of > this shortfall. There has been a lot of discussion within the SC about what "the right thing to do" is/was/should have been. If the SC has made mistakes, I hope the lessons learned will help future SC members in the years to come.
