A. Nope it was ripped apart by #encryptionists and #process geeks on the inside and the #fashernistas pushing #dotcons on the outside. In the end we stopped caring about what was left.
Have you thought of the "power polatics" impact of the spread of "codes of conducts" its good to empower people... Its dangerous to give people. "hard rules" to hit each other. The is a long disgusting history of the second happening? So are the better ways to empower people?
