6 Anyone can learn about the past. Just read the posts on -nfp, and then my bug.
7 It all took place publicly. There are not many posts on -nfp, it started in
8 August. I provided links in my first post....

12
13 Appeal what? Comrel entirely? What would I be appealing?
14
15 I have asked that question several times and no one has answered that. It also
16 seems before appeal I need to request a full vote by comrel. The entire
17 situation is not clear to me....

29 I have never been treated fairly by comrel. The interaction with comrel has
30 never been good since 2008. Last time I was in irc comrel silenced me, from

32
33 If I made such posts on a comrel list, I would be banned.... I was accused of
34 spamming THEIR irc channel. Likely make the same accusation about emails.

41 I stopped for days, I chimed in on some specific points. But I really do not
42 expect things to change in my case. Also this effects MORE than just me...
