[governance] On acceptable and unacceptable criticism

Generally, meta-communication (communication about how we 
communicate) is the best manner to resolve communication problems,
and resolve possible "double binds" bugging the communication. And 
this is true also for electronic communication as experienced on line
moderators can testify from their respective experience.

I am encline to diagnose that in the case of that community it had 
strangely and paradoxically turn to do exactly the countrary: the space
where tensions and conflicts are fed.

May I kindly suggest to every one, including co-co's, to give a long 
break to discussions about how we discuss and let conflicts
and strong differences, if they do exist, express where they should: 
in the main line of communication, so they can be more clearly
identified and acknowledged.

I bet we can reach a meta consensus on that proposition :-).
