<div dir="ltr">Astera seems to have just removed my sudo list from the project that i started in 15 July 2008 ( see <a href="http://hackerspaces.org/w/index.php?title=Hackerspaces&dir=prev&action=history">http://hackerspaces.org/w/index.php?title=Hackerspaces&dir=prev&action=history</a> )<div>
<br></div><div style>Why you ask? Because I gave Florian Holzhauer (who was a main organizer of CCC Camp) access to create new deploy scripts for auto-deploying (using opsworks, chef, etc.) a new server so the site stops being broken and unmaintainted.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>While we're almost done with this, the site got spammed heavily again. Flo asked me if he could step in, and I said - well, the site is being spammed. He fixed it and also deployed the fixes that will make pagination work again - finally! - I'm not sure what then happened, but she seems to have gotten angry at FH and removed his and my access. At some point she said "you have access again, enki not". </div>
<div style><br></div><div style>This isn't the first such story I've heard. Eric Michaud (who wrote a sizable up to half of the stories at (<a href="http://blog.hackerspaces.org/">http://blog.hackerspaces.org/</a>) also told me she removed his access much earlier for power struggle reasons. (Eric is in cc)</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Please be aware she didn't start a hackerspace, and hadn't even attended a single Metalab meeting by the time we got her involved to help with some promotion and logo design.</div><div style>
<br></div><div style>I have no time to deal with this right now - I just started a huge opensource bitcoin exchange project (see <a href="http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1c7v6z/buttercoin_open_source_highperformance_bitcoin/">http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1c7v6z/buttercoin_open_source_highperformance_bitcoin/</a> with 1274 upvotes). </div>
<div style><br></div><div style>I still own the domain names associated with Hackerspaces. I'm happy the site is up and I don't care if I have root. I just wanted to say that in my opinion FH right now is the authoritative Tech admin, since he's actually doing the leg work, and it's not cool to sabotage others who actually do the work, when you've let the site languish for years.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Sorry to put the laundry out in the open, but this just isn't a way to deal with people.</div><div style><br></div><div style>Best,</div><div style>Enki</div></div>
