> We published a draft policy update and worked with the community in #freenode-policy-feedback to understand the community's wishes. Who specifically are the "we" who published a draft policy update? As in, which people voted on it, and what were the votes? Similarly, which people made the decision that advertising another network was "inappropriate advertising"? Finally, having listened to the feedback from the Freenode community in the channel you made to do so, what have you heard from it, and what changes will you be implementing as a result? Given that Freenode is a community that had, at least until recently, successfully self-governed for years, this is just in the interest of transparency, so we can each make a fact-based judgement about whether or not the policy changes were implemented in the manner best for the Freenode community, of which you are currently one member.
