Maybe the other coordinators feel differently, but I'll speak for myself.
We said she was welcome to post. An apology would help, and talking would heal.
However, personally I don't really expect anything from her, because she's said and done enough, and I don't think anything genuinely resembling an apology is forthcoming anyway (FYI her "I was wrong" email was heavily censored). She does not appear to be taking any responsibility for her actions, and once again she plays this down as people making a fuss about nothing:
"I think it is a little funny anyone is bringing up anything like that about me being a traitor a couple of years after the fact..."
However, this this "non-issue," this "non-event" had serious repercussions, and people suffered for it.
I couldn't agree with AG more: "I don't care how much good you do or how saintly your life's work, if you screw up as a consequence of bad judgement, you have a responsibility to admit your mistakes and make amends for the damage done."
In this case, since her apology or concern about the consequences of her actions is an unrealistic expectation, all I would want is her uncensored attitude on record, and I'm willing to leave it at that. I'm not out to get her or get anything from her.
I'd like to reiterate, her posts were not non-events, nor mere words - (which is why even you have sometimes had to remove posts from NDN
when they were about to translate into real life actions that could get seriously out of hand) - in this case, it translated into damaging events.
Regardless, I repeat, I'm not out to get her or get anything from her - she's said and done enough, and I want it to be on record.
