Having looked at the document more, yes. Take out everything except: * a pointer to to CEPC * a list of the Ombudspeople * add a pointer to https://www.w3.org/Guide/process/suspension.html (which is currently missing), and * a pointer to where to take feedback. As examples of things that will go, without replacement: * the "Procedures" section which is redunant and/or in conflict with the CEPC and suspension guidelines processes * Stale mentions of "hosts" * Stale mentions of MIT training * A broken link to the "harrassment" section of the CEPC * A list of resources that is not being maintained * The versioning, aside from the CVS log line. Consider moving change control to Github so that people can suggest PRs to fix more things. And while the doc is open, consider using a single email address for Ralph rather than leave the naive reader wondering why he's using two different ones. -- Sam
