Prrretty sure there was zero indication that that is "what this is all
about", and as far as I can tell, there have been *zero* "accusations of
incompetence". Only "this doesn't seem to be meeting all users' needs,
perhaps we can adjust".

Personally, as a leader who is not seeking re-election in our next cycle, I
don't think I qualify as "hungry for power", nor do I get the remotest
inkling of that from any of the messages posted prior to this.

Svaksha, you seem to be taking this as a personal attack, and in my reading
of the past emails/messages, especially taking into account what I know of
pleia2, that was not even slightly intended.
