I voted for you, but given how you behaved when actually a member of
FESCo, I kind of came to regret it. I think your assessment is not
entirely correct. It wasn't because (or not entirely because) it was You
Versus 8, but because of how you conducted yourself in meetings and
discussions. Essentially, you were a large part of *making* it You
Versus 8, rather than nine people with various different opinions but
also some broad common ground.

This time I again made a point of voting for people who are not in 'the
cabal' (which doesn't exist, of course), but tried to pick ones who I
thought would work in productive and co-operative ways within FESCo.

I realize you're just drawing a rather shaky analogy and not suggesting
the other FESCo candidates were Evil Dictators, but even still, I don't
think this is an appropriate illustration of the process.
