[Osmf-talk] Losing faith

[Patipat Susumpow]

Hello from Chiang Mai, Thailand,

Since the original problem was about no proper control over the legacy
password, and you guys at CWG have solve that by changing it and keep that
'new' password with yourself in CWG circle, I don't see why the Chiarman
Emeritus shouldn't has an access to it.

Guys, don't you think the founder who found the thing that bought us here
together should be able to speak out for the community throught
@openstreetmap?

I don't think so.

Keng.
