Dear David It us kindly been pointed out to me that I might have misunderstood your message. I apologize, and also for adding to the confusion. All the best and thank you for attempting to diversify the list.

Such a case occurred recently with provocative statements made by Keith Russell. Keith and I established this list many years ago and over the years he has been a steady source of advice to me in managing the list. Ironically, this was especially true when the list was subject to inappropriate comments in past years. > > Following Keith's recent statements I received a number of complaints. At his request, Keith has been removed as a subscriber, and has stepped down as co-owner.

Several names have been suggested already, and further suggestions will be welcomed off list. In the interests of balance I would prefer someone complementary to my cultural predisposition as a white elderly male from the Atlantic West. > > We are a community of over 3000 subscribers. Some of the most interesting scholars in our field take the trouble to post here and debate. There is no other forum quite like this. I wanted to take this opportunity to assure everyone that processes are in place to protect the integrity of these discussions. Among those processes are ongoing actions to prevent persons subscribing for the purposes of trolling, and the censure or removal of anyone behaving badly. > > Back to the debates... > > kind regards > David > > ____________________________________ > > David Durling HonFDRS PhD http://durling.tel > > > > > > > > > > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > PhD-Design mailing list <[log in to unmask]> > Discussion of PhD studies and related research in Design > Subscribe or Unsubscribe at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/phd-design > ----------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------- PhD-Design mailing list <[log in to unmask]> Discussion of PhD studies and related research in Design Subscribe or Unsubscribe at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/phd-design -----------------------------------------------------------------
