* Isky isn't on trial. Some people have a problem with his behavior
and are discussing it on the email list. That's all.

* This is specifically about Isky, and specifically about him keeping
his desktop in the Turing classroom on a long term basis.

* Personally, I think if the membership came together, decided if
keeping personal desktops in the classrooms was excellent behavior or
not with everyone having an equal say, and then wrote this decision
down, we could avoid a lot of drama. Otherwise this email thread will
continue until everyone is emotionally drained, nothing will be
resolved, and this or a problem like it will flare up again in a few
months.
