Personally, no one from my collective has the time to sort through
dozens of messages every day on process and communication to keep up
-- which is why, in the past, lengthy several-month deadlines were
assigned so that local IMCs had time to dissect what was going on.
This is part of the reason to have facilitation on the imc-process
list.

The last I saw was that there was a block of the IMC Germany proposal.
I missed the part where this block was ruled irrelevant.

I am not interested in participating in the Belgian soap opera. I only
know people involved through the internet. Asking me to dislike
someone when I don't really know you or them is just pointless.

My problem at this point is that imc-process has authorized a
controversial change through sloppy process. This is not good for
anyone involved, no matter if they got what they wanted or not.
