I see nobody's occupied the fence yet, and I like the view..so here I go.

Firstly, I've met Martin, and we've shared some fun events in the UK in
the past. So, I know that I have a natural bias, and that's leading me
to take no strong role in this dispute. That doesn't mean that I can't
offer an opinion on the general issue, just that I'm not going to attack
or defend anyone.

In fact, I'd say nothing and let this play out, except that I keep
seeing people I otherwise respect leaping to attack one or the other
party..when they themselves have next to no grounding in this dispute or
the context behind it.

So I'm clear, I'm not asking that this discussion not happen; this is an
issue for our community if it takes place in our community. I disagree
with Martin asking for it to be removed. In an ideal world, Jen would
never have felt the need to post the dispute to a large and public
mailing list; I'm glad that they've all agreed to a third-party
mediator, which IMO is the better route to seeking resolution. But, now
that it's "out", it's not realistic to expect others not to feel they
have a stake in the outcome.

That does not mean, however, that we have a right to decide guilt based
on the emotive content of one or the others' arguments. We, the general
"we" who occupy the world and not Copenhagen in particular, need to make
sure that our community is free of misogyny or social exclusion. We will
*not* accomplish that goal by verbally bombarding anyone at the drop of
a hat; that is far more likely to accomplish the opposite effect, where
groups that have accreted a primarily male role by circumstance are
*less* likely to risk encouraging members of the other, equally numerous
and skilled sex, because of the experiences they've had with such
cooperation in the past. If we want justice and equality, then act like
people who value justice and equality and listen to whomever shares
their opinions, experiences and perspectives before shouting at them.

If I may, Jen: it sounds like you're an enthusiastic and competent
person. I don't know what situation you've been in, and if I'm honest I
don't feel I have enough context to work with here, either. I hope you
and the others find a resolution that pleases you all. I'd just like to
suggest something I observed in your writing, here:

You've praised and damned the anarchic structures of BG and Labitat, but
in your writing it sounds like at many points you were frustrated when
you asked for inclusion in a project from another member. Now, you are
coming out, assertively, and proposing (I think?) a new space. I think
that attitude, of assertiveness and willingness to go and do what you
want without waiting for permission, seemed missing in what you relate
of your past dealings in BG, and I hope you keep that steam going.
Because if an organisation is anarchic, then you'll get nowhere by
asking, only by doing.

I'm glad you're seeking third-party mediation. If that doesn't work, I'd
suggest one of two routes; if you view what happened as harassment at a
magnitude that merits intervention, then pursue intervention. But if
your grievance is with exclusion or representation, then proceed with
your hard-fork. The structures of "flat" hackerspaces were borrowed in
part from online structures; software, forums, etcetera. And the weapon
of last resort when people feel disengaged from de-facto leadership is
either to overrule leadership, or to fork the project and forge their
own path. I don't know you, but you seem more assertive now than you do
in your accounts of your past; I think you're up to the challenge,
whichever way you go.

best of luck to all,
Cathal
