>
>         “Any time 4 individual members of the IGC co-sign a statement
>         on the main IGC mailing list they can appeal any decision of
>         the coordinators. When a decision is appealed, the appeals
>         team will review any discussions that occurred and will
>         request comments from the IGC membership. Based on the
>         information they collect and discussion, they will decide on
>         the merit of the appeal."
>
>         "Decisions by the appeals team are based on a majority vote of
>         the appeal team, i.e., three (3) or more votes, except in the
>         case of coordinator recall which requires full consensus. The
>         decision of the appeals team will be final on every decision
>         reviewed.”
>
>         “An appeals team of five (5) IGC members will be formed. The
