I think the Board/someone delegated that authority to
not really. In fact membership officials give an advice on the candidacy, but the board is not at all obliged to follow it. I beg that most of the time rejected candidacy are not looked really, but accepted one are for sure. It's pretty difficult to have a result, there, because we are not a sufficient number. IMHO, this situation can only be emergency solution, and all the board members should be allowed to vote for candidacy. but the advice is given on the number and interest of contributions, not on whisdom of candidate... in fact the only guiding principle part that could allow resigning membership is that one: "We don't tolerate social discrimination and aim at creating an environment where people feel accepted and safe from offense" In fact I don't think the board made a bad decision, I simply notice this was not done in the best way (the board members themselve didn't probably ever had to cope with such situtation :-) and we have to prevent this to be done twice. deeling with such problems is very difficult, I have already seen groups nearly killed by such conflict. The only (the better) solution is openness and transparency.
