If I did I probably wouldn't comment on the matter, and the
conversation would be even more one-sided.

You would have to ask him.

If he doesn't think Comrel is doing something, why is he posting here
in the first place?  If he does thing Comrel is doing something, why
not just appeal it?

Anybody can ask the Council to take up anything.  I can't promise the
Council actually will, but there is a reason we send out those monthly
emails calling for agenda items.  You don't need to request an appeal
in public, you just need to ask for one.  At worst we'll try to be
helpful and tell you want to do before appealing if we don't think the
matter is ripe for an appeal.  Believe it or not we're not actually
out to get people.

For whatever reason the Comrel decisions are documented in a public
bug in this case.
