If so where is the transparency and accountability?
Who was the individual? Why did they do what they did?
If they do not represent project leadership, what will be done to fix this situation and prevent similar problems in the future?
If they do represent project leadership, why weren't the changes and the reasons for the changes communicated better?
A group of people mysteriously calling the shots in a closed room ultimately alienates the community and will stifle the long-term success of Rust.

- dralley 3y agoKeep in mind that this whole thing started only about 36 hours ago. The internet conditions us to expect immediacy but this is all being done by volunteers on a holiday weekend, not a corporate PR department. I doubt the full teams involved will even be able to convene until Tuesday at least due to people on vacation. The accountability must happen and shouldn't be ignored, and I hope that various parties step forward to handle the mea culpa responsibly, but it's a bit early to grab the pitchforks, light the torches and march to the town square.
