Hi Nick, I'm sorry, but I can't see anything in my email that requires an apologize. Can you tell me exactly what, and they if you're right I'm happy to do that? And note that most of the message was not towards them. I fully understand that the CoCTF is just following a mandate, instructions or whatever way you want to say. If I got it correctly, provided by the Chairs Team, but I can't find any document or email about that. I'm just asking for documents that show that rules agreed by the community are being followed: 1) I was surprised not to see an open mailing list to contribute. 2) I asked to be included in the TF and then I got the message from Leo to wait for the next meeting. I didn't understood that, but waited. 3) Then I get a message telling that is not open. How come a community that talks everyday about inclusivity, being open, transparency, etc., etc., can tell anyone that wish to join to the work that it is not open? 4) Where is the community agreed document to allow a close Task Force? I'm be missing that clearly. 5) I used some irony in my email instead of writing negative thinking's. I think that is very polite, and no way could be considered unappropriated. I've been discriminated, harassed and insulted in *public* RIPE mailing lists several times and I never saw any reaction to that. So now, I'm openly expressing my point of view 6) What is obstructive? Willing to contribute in getting a "no, it is a close membership". When this has been agreed? 7) I've not asked anyone to waste their time. If you volunteer for something, you just do it, and that means providing explanations to others in the community. Same I did tons of times in all the RIRs and related communities. 8) There is nothing disrespectful, unless there is some broken wording from my Spanish-to-English, but as more as I read it, I can't see it. I tried to clearly say that this "close membership" is, in my opinion, totally against the diversity, inclusivity, openness, etc., that we are every day talking about. How it can be? So, if this is the case, for me, in Spanish we call it a theater "we say something, but we do something different". 9) I'm not threatening anyone. I'm just expressing what I think is contrary to the community itself, and I personally feel it as a discrimination. When I feel that something is discriminatory, and possibly against law, I always do the same, because *it is my right to defend my right up to courts if needed*. I've already flighted the Spanish government/institutions in the constitutional court several times and I recall one of the government lawyers defending that institution saying the same "he is a criminal, he is threatening this institution". The result of that was in my favor and a sanction to that lawyer for trying to use "the force of a public institution against a citizen that has the right to defend its rights and fight against what he believes it is wrong". If something is wrong (even if I'm wrong), I clearly have the right to complain, defend my positions, expose it to whoever I consider appropriate. I don't think there is nothing wrong on that. I think we all know each other from many years, and I can't still believe this reaction. Are you really saying that there is no document on a decision for a close membership TF, and complaining about that it is against who took that decision and I can't do that? I've no problem to apologize, but really, I need to understand why.

I expect to see your apology later today. I respectfully suggest that you reflect on your “deep experience in many abuse situations” and consider what consequences usually and normally follow from posting messages which are obstructive, which waste time, and which contain disrespectful and threatening language. I hope I may look forward to your constructive engagement with the RIPE Code-of-Conduct Task Force in response to Leo’s kind invitation to contribute to their work by email.
