Blicero used his access to servers to put rogue-imc on the cities list
against our process, in anger, and has been making threats that make me
personally worried he might do something more extreme like remove
ithaca's DNS or interfere with my email forward.

I have never, either through threat or action, used my access to IMC
resources to gain power over other IMC members or to overrule process.

The call to have blicero's access immediatly revoked is a to prevent
more harm to be done in this situation until it cools down, and it is on
a temporary basis only.

Blicero has done some great work with audio in the past and is needed
for his work in europe.  Removing him as IMC-Tech would hurt the network
as a whole, not to mention, is completely unnessesary.  This isn't about
personalities or who-likes-who and this isn't about kicking anyone out.

The call to have his access revoked is not "punishment" for his actions,
but as a precautionary measure.  His uncontrolled anger, threats, and
the action of adding rogue to the cities list without consensus and
against established Indymedia process has indicated a clear and present
need to protect our resources from further abuse.

There is no need for the IMC-Tech clique to puff out their cheeks and
"protect" blicero, this is not an attack on him, and this is not a
popularity contest.  Ego and power games are not what we're about.
