We are making this all up as we go along.

My viewpoint here is that if Rolf was kicked out unfairly, what reason do we
have to ask anything from him?

I think that if this group wants to discuss how to govern itself, that is a fine
idea, but there is something wrong with bringing this up just because you
disagree with a decision.

If the group is going to govern itself via three elected moderators, that is
fine.  If it is going to govern itself by plebiscite, that is fine, too.  But
let us pick one system and use it.  If the current system is the right system to
have, then please let us do our jobs as defined by this system.  If you want to
disagree with our decisions, no  problem, but calling the system itself into
question, because you disagree with a decision, is too much.

I have no idea when you all will be rid of us.  I didn't pay attention.
