Thank you, @darja. I have a couple of questions for you (or other Scala Center representatives) specifically.
- Do Martin's vague threats about "disqualification" and "reducing my motivation" represent the position of the Scala Center? If not, can you explain how the position of the Scala Center with respect to Rob's decision is different? Do Martin's threats have any bearing on Rob's role at the Scala Center? (I'm assuming the answers are "no" and "it doesn't have a position" and "no", but if they're not I'd like to know.)
- Would this ZIO contributor be allowed to participate in Scala Center venues? I believe this question is relevant because that person specifically has been welcomed for years by the ZIO community, despite their exclusionary behavior, and Martin's defence of the ZIO community is the original topic of this post.
