[EURO-Discuss] Keep the documentation

[Nick Ashton-Hart]

With respect to the staff point:

FYI, my view of the staff role is that we are agnostic with respect to
policy. With respect to process, we have an obligation to ensure that
processes are protected, and where developed by the community, ensure
equal access, transparenc, and respect for a rules-based framework for
interaction in which every stakeholder is on an equal footing with
every other.

To that end, you have and will see periodic interventions about
process and procedure, and sometimes suggestion of a new process or
procedure in order to provide further avenues for the community to
engage on issues or to solve a problem which the current process seems
inadequate to facilitate.

As to what policy to debate, and what to say, on this I have no views
- not only as staff, but generally personally as well, though my
personal views are effectively nil as it is my job to help you put
yours forward, not to have any of my own put forward.
