I have a strong desire to see this Forum remain open until the final windup and closeout of the ARU shares, including disposition of the dissent issues. Obviously, we are all free to post at our discretion, normally subject to the oversight of the Hub Leaders. Aitakahashi had assumed a leadership role after safeharbour left, but now she has gone.

My question: who is exercising oversight now, if anyone?

We have junior members (as I am) asking other junior members to "get lost". This may be a fair expression of opinion, but sounds to me like we may be descending into chaos. Someone with as much experience as possible should be making these calls, IMHO, of course, based on the Agoracom rules.

If we all make an effort to remain civil, I believe the Forum will remain helpful. Otherwise, I see an acceleration of its demise.
