>> Dear Joop:
>>

>>
>> Please find below the report of the Provisional Membership Committee.

>>
>> The committee udertook to use the 24 hour period from 00:00Zulu
>> Saturday to 00:00Zulu Sunday to look into these allegations and to
>> attempt to determine if the elected Panel members had complied
>> with three conditions requested by some members. Those simple

>>
>> 1) that the elected Panel member be a real person and verified as
>> such.
>> 2) that the elected Panel member declare her / his willingness to
>> serve on the Panel for a time certain.
>> 3) that the elected Panel member make hemself or herself known to
>> the membership they are elected to serve by way of an introductory
>> post to the atLarge-discuss list.
>>
>> Our report and addenda are copied below.
>>
>> Respectfully, Ron Sherwood

>> We, the members of the Provisional Membership Committee wish to

>>
>> 1) All elected Panel members are real persons and not artificial

>> 2) a number of elected Panelists have declined to respond to
>> members requests to
>> introduce themselves to the membership on the atlarge-discuss list.
>> 3) one elected Panelist, Sebastian Klein, has declined to
>> confirm a willingness to work
>> on the Panel for a time certain.
>> 4) one Panel member,Sebastian Klein, has not responded to any
>> email requests and has
>> failed to post to any of this organization's fora. It is a

>>
>> 5) It is our recommendation to the Panel that:
>>
>> a) All unknown Panelists be required to introduce themselves to the

>> member
>> which comment is set as addendum (iii) below.)
>> b) Sebastian Klein be contacted and advised that his failure to

>> c) if, for any reason, Sebastian Klein (or any other Panelist)
>> resigns from the
>> Panel, The next highest, qualified, vote-getter should be asked to
>> join the
>> Panel as a replacement.
>>
>> Addendum (i) Sotiris Sotiropoulos dissented from that consensus

>> "No. No. No. We have established nothing of the kind. I cannot

>> Addendum (ii) Micheal Sherril dissented from the consensus with
>> the following notation:
>> "No, we have not established that statement for certain"
>> Addendum (iii) Micheal Sherril dissented from the consensus with
>> the following notation:
>> "If they have not introduced themselves to the atLarge discuss
>> list by this
>> deadline this is a moot point. Recommend the boot, instead. They
>> have already
>> been asked several times to do this."
>> Addendum (iv) Micheal Sherril dissented from the consensus with
>> the following notation:
>> "Same as above. Klein has missed the deadline. Recommend the
>> boot, instead.
>>
>> Eleven members volunteered to work on this committee, nine members
