Cameron
I sincerely thank you for speaking up, firmly yet respectfully.
Positive change and a sustainable culture rely on positive role models and advocates that do not fear to speak up.
I applaud and thank you for this post.

Subject: Re: With friends like these who needs the PhDDesign List?
This nasty little post is completely unforgivable. In the context of this discussion, its author reveals himself to be utterly detestable. His character is now a matter of internet record.
At the conclusion of the DRS in Brighton yesterday, I condemned this list to delegates for being toxic in relation to design research and I called for its urgent replacement.
It is a condemnation of the design and culture of the PhD-Design list that someone like this can feel comfortable about posting in this manner to such a forum. (Perhaps it has something to do with what appears to take place as off-list communications by the list’s dominant voices).
In my efforts to police some of this list’s excesses, I have certainly contributed to its now unsustainable culture, so welcome the creation other strongly moderated forums that are only by and for a next generation of design researchers.
