SF3 response to MoonFail

[hermetic]

So, notice of this just posted today to the wiscon community:

Two Resolutions

Here's the relevant bit:

"[...]passed during the SF3 annual meeting on October 3, 2010.

"MOTION: it is the sense of the SF3 Annual Meeting that rescinding Elizabeth Moon’s GoH invitation would best serve WisCon’s goals and community."

Wow. I wasn't expecting that.

Wow. How will this play out? Will they replace her? Wow.

Well, it's SF3 stating that... not the Troika. The Troika doesn't have to follow through on it.

karnythia has a great take on the situation here.

Also, a straw poll of the program comm and concom was overwhelmingly in favor of revoking GOH status, but again, final decision rests with the troika. Who so far seem stuck on figuring out how to have their cake and eat it too. Right after they discover the secret of cold fusion and infinite momentum.
