Re: [Tccc] Conference costs and ComSoc transparency

I fully agree with Carlos and support his request. Penalizing someone (without due process) for challenging the way of working is not the practice suitable for a society of engineers, quite contrary such discussions should be encouraged.

Srdjan

Dear Joe

Who decided to unsubscribe Virgilio from the TCCC list? Who is the lawyer, the prosecutor and the judge? Sorry, but in my opinion, our community must respect and consider diferente opinions... Could you please show us where we can find "the boundaries set by the IEEE for appropriate conduct"? Is it an appropriate conduct to unsubscribe Virgilio? Could you please subscribe Virgilio again?

Best regards,
Carlos.
