[Chapter-delegates] Article about Kathy leaving

[Martínez Cervantes Luis Miguel]

Dave, you have the right to express anything you want, as all of us do. However, I disagree on your quantitative estimation on the perception of ISOC or the CEO. Roughly, the dozen you speak represents 0.01% of worldwide membership. Again, diversity adds value to ISOC.

Sincerely,

Luis Martinez
President ISOC Mx

Folks

It's always painful to disagree with Vint, who has earned respect from all of us.  Criticizing ISOC, even when you're correct, risks claims of disloyalty, which is not a problem to me.
Vint and all. Where I have errors, please point them out so I can correct them.
Where my comments about ISOC are accurate and important, please fix the problems instead of shooting the messenger.  There are at least half a dozen I'm pretty sure you'd agree with if you read it again when your anger has passed.

Vint's comment was odd.
​
your piece is mostly your opinion and should be labeled as such.
​

Funny, I signed the piece and the about page says the site is mine. I think no one would be surprised to see some analysis or opinions.
Actually, most of what I wrote has a factual basis, most easily verified.
I made a list of 40+ facts I included to justify my analysis. (I also found two small errors, corrected.) To put this to rest, I'm sending that list to Vint to check and will send a copy to anyone who asks.

Meanwhile, let's look at the real issues in ISOC and try to fix them.

Which I won't repeat now.

I separately am working on an emails about non-controversial problems I think we should fix (listing our donors, welcoming members who aren't "like-minded", making sure our policy recommendations are evidence-based, correcting errors when we find them, allowing comments on our blogs, ...)

​Dave
