hi richard, i'm really ashamed you're getting involved in this and the
shitload of emails that'll ensue.  if you take the time to read the fine
selection sent, at least hear the other bell and the full story.

this "we" doesn't mean the parabola community, just the guys feeling
attacked.

yes, they were secret because everyone else in the community wasn't
involved.  you're forgetting you also wanted to force our fiscal sponsor
to pay for things you wanted without caring if they could really pay
them, and then accusing them of mishandling our funds.  this forced them
to cut our agreement and everyone else here to find a new fiscal
sponsor.

this is a bogus claim.  your corpus is full of names of people that have
called your bullshit.

we do have community rules: we have an open list and everything was
always brought here to consensus.
