Nothing has changed. Chairman say those list still exist and issues can
still be copied there.

I am sure CEO can speak for himself. I also sure the chairman board (who I
believe speak on behalf of board on this list) discuss this with CEO before
sending last email. You talk of trust, let us start show some trust and
faith in some simple thing.

Nothing in what chairman has propose will change that. See last but one
paragraph

I not so keen on method. But I do 1000% support timeliness. At very least,
CEO or board chair must acknowledged an issue if there is no immediate
answer then say when he will come back toward us with answer to issue
raised.

Again. NOTHING in chair's email is attempt to shut down open discussion. He
clearly state that


i)  member-discuss and community-discuss continue to exist
ii) people can still copy message to those list (even better for
transparency)
