I do remember some discussion about a case faced in another venue, so we
wanted to let us the possibility to reject the membership of someone who
is notoriously known as, say, having a public agenda towards the
extinction of ontologies on earth. (01)
we have chosen 5 day notification to just let all of us the opportunity
to see the name of the applicant and possibly react. (02)
but as far as I know, we all are internet addicts, and 5 days is a bit
generous, or isn't it?? (03)
and do you all DO read those messages anyway?? :-) (04)
