Well... that's a good question. So I guess I will submit something and request that it be submitted to a general vote of OpenACS members.
But this is something worth getting knickers twisted. There's some fool who is a political talk show host named Tucker Carlson who recently said that the ideal president would be someone who felt that "in Washington we know what's best for you and we are going to do it regardless of what you think."
I'm not suggesting that the person who closed the thread did so maliciously or out of some neo-conservative zeal to censor the community, but either way the decision to shoot first and ask questions later is wrong. And I think there need to be some explicit regulations regarding the scope of the OCT.
