Noisebridge knows. Noisebridge has WAY more experience with Jake than
most people. Either trust that Noisebridge did right, or find a
hackerspace where Jake is allowed in the door, if it matters that much
to you.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div>my concern for jake, personally, is nil. i do care about fairness & equity alot though <br></div><span class="im"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><br>We're fucking done with him.
