There's an official statement from #rustlang leadership on @thephd 's keynote:

No personal accountability, yet, though the post alludes that individuals may come forward? It does mention the individuals have stepped back from governance positions.

role.

i'm not sure what "leaving room" means...?

it seems to imply that those individuals might say nothing about this in public?

@JamesWidman @thephd

I wish I knew. There should have been stronger guarantees in that post.

@jntrnr @JamesWidman @thephd shouldn't there be a record somewhere of them stepping down? Or can they keep it quiet somehow?
@Paxxi @jntrnr @thephd ok, but how do we know that that record means, "i'm stepping down because i acknowledge that i abused my station", instead of (for example) "i'm stepping down because i need a break from all of this"
@JamesWidman good point
