Dear Daniel,

This statement could create the impression that Daniel Pocock was the one vote against the simplification of the membership procedure. However, this is not the case. Daniel Pocock did not participate in this vote, nor did he participate in the General Assembly altogether (neither personally nor by delegation).
Some people may have chosen not to attend the meeting so that it wouldn't achieve quorum.
That sounds unusually anti-democratic. A staunch democrat votes.
In my case, I actually went out to Albania and Kosovo for free software events[1] while other FSFE GA members and staff were meeting in Berlin to remove my position.
This sounds more than a little disingenuous. It sounds like you are implying that the GA scarcely go to free software events and/or only had a meeting to vote on a single matter. Both couldn't be further from the truth.
I am certain that there is a better platform or way to address these disagreements than what looks like airing dirty laundry in public, though. The CoC mandates that criticism be constructive, and claims like this...
As the last[1] man standing for democracy in FSFE
...don't look the part.
I assume you have good intentions, Daniel, and love free software every bit as much as the rest of us, so I want to ask you if your issues can be addressed with the same assumption of good intentions.
Yours faithfully, Carmen
