The most Infamous Bureaucratic Open Source Foundation in the World

Dear the readers of Apachenews.org.

At 18th November 2009, My birthday, The Borad Members of The Apache Software Foundation ( http://www.apache.org/foundation/ ) decided (*) to remove tetsuya@apache.org (Tetsuya Kitahata --- This Apache News Editor) from the Foundation.

I can not understand the reason, still. However, one of the board members at the Apache Software Foundation wanted to get rid of me as soon as possible (in order to hide his mistakes etc.), it appears to be.

However, there exist really weired things.

Take a glance at http://www.apache.org/howitworks.html please.

The reason of the ex-sponsor (who did not say nothing on the "childishness" of the public relations committees etc. for long), three times votes and approved as a committer, and Apache News Online Editor OUGHT to be KILLED by Apache.Org? == Can you find there?
Rather, I was the sponsor, the first individual sponsor of the Apache Software Foundation -- http://an.to/asf -- and in normal sense, it would be nonsense to get rid of me.

They are priviledged to make me COMMIT SUICIDE?

(*) Legally speaking, this is not approved formally. The "minutes"' next or next/next "minutes" decides the conversation was really approved or not. So, not final decision in a sense. Recall bureaucratic APACHE! -- move to other Foundations which operate Open Sources Projects well!
