It indeed is *very* important because: The board didn't state anything until the former board members started to comment questions by the community.
Yes, but only after the statement the former members saw the need to defend themselves and disclose at least some details about what had happened. And I think this community would have failed if it had not asked question when a board member steps down because of events within the board that are in conflict with his moral and principles.
I can only speculate about their motives but my impression is that the former board members only uncovered some details because the community (or better: some people on this mailing list) were not able to respect the ex-board member's wish for no questions.
As long as those do not further explain their motives we can only speculate but with it you, too, are acting against the ex board member's request not to speculate or ask for details they don't want to talk about to protect others. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
