== Abtract and RfAr ==


Thanks for your message; nothing particularly new with Abtract - Collectonian is still feeling harassed by him editing ''near'' to her recent contributions, I am not getting any further with determining a form of words that would address her concerns without impinging on Abtract's views on how he can be permitted to edit the encyclopedia, and Abtract is in any event questioning that I should even be attempting to do so owing to my supposed antipathy toward him... So I took it to the final resort for dispute resolution.


== Extracurricular Activities and Programs ==
If you are not particularly interested in supporting or opposing the Request to have a case, ''if'' it is accepted I think it might be worthwhile for you to note that you and Abtract have been able to agree some sort of protocol to avoid conflict - it may help the Committee when deciding how best to handle matters if it can be shown that agreements between Abtract and others can work. However, that is still in the realms of it - and if you are not interested at present (or in future) in participating then that it fine; we are all volunteers here. I will let you know should the case be accepted, and you can decide then if you wish to play any part of it.
