I must thank Lesha and Rowena for stepping in here in true moderator style and steering us back. I need advice, encouragement and a sounding board for completing a PDR that has been neglected for a total of nearly three years since my year of training and that is what this list is here to provide. I think that Emilce should take the initiative to start another list to debate an obviously heated and topical subject and I look forward to her moderation on this and similar topics having enjoyed her lively debates on iliglist.

Unfortunately Rowena and I have been forced to make a choice. People intending to Charter and working towards it are saying (on the list and in personal emails to me) that they are unhappy to remain on the list if Emilce Rees remain on it. Therefore, as Emilce has stated she is definitely not working towards Chartering, and has continually voiced her objections to the process, we have reluctantly taken the decision to remove her from the list, in order that it can continue to provide support and a positive environment to those for whom it was set up. I hope you don't feel this is heavy-handed. As a look at the list archives will easily demonstrate I am not against vigorous discussion! ;-) But this particular situation has not improved (after many months) and it must end. The basic premise of why we are here on the list has to be borne in mind, and I am afraid that when it comes down to it, we'd rather lose Emilce's contribution than that of several active Charter candidates. Emilce's email address is in the archives, for any of you who wish to continue discussions directly with her. She may even set up her own email discussion list....
