Everyone was invited.  The project was announced both internally and 
externally through the appropriate channels. It isn't my fault if you chose 
to ignore that post.

I have other tasks to do too.  I can't run around telling everyone.  I tried 
to post the change to results but the list owner rejected the message and 
hasn't responded to my follow-up e-mails about it.  I keep tabs on this list. 
This is the first violation I've seen discussed.  So I promptly responded and 
reminded you of it. What more do you expect?

It is always your job to follow the style guide.  Management has supported 
creation of the project and is aware of the discussion and the decision. I'm 
following the guidelines for project discussion decided in conjunction with 
management.  I'm doing my job to the best of my ability.
