[Cz-editcouncil] Resolution 0003: initial call for private comment

[Robert P. Tito]

Contrary Martin,

These posts SHOULD be OUT in the open, just to make everybody aware  
about the ideas, feelings and attitude towards these topics.
It is a wrong thing to have them private in the first place - as how  
do we know your sincere remarks will come through at all? Now there  
is no knowledge about any remark whatsoever.
I would say: remarks about things we vote about need be open in the  
edit-council, nothing hidden.

Thanks for making this "mistake" it is greatly appreciated.

Rob
