the purpose of the email was to be informative and to communicate - and tag wranglers aren't the ones who are being asked to solve this issue
Um, wow.
The line given to the ML was "we will be seeking out wrangler input, which we appreciate and value." Not "just thought you'd like to know we're doing this, be happy we told you this much, now run along and don't get in our way."
I can't point to specific emails or wranglers
We're both on the ML, so the closed-group information involved is available to both of us. My DW inbox is open -- as is my email, sailorptah at yahoo dot com. Nothing you bring up in private communication will be repeated outside of it. If you want to point to specifics, you have options.
And yes, I get that you don't speak for the chairs (in spite of your mention of their letter as evidence that you weren't "the only person to have drawn this conclusion"). You started off by citing your personal opinion that people were "abusive" and "shockingly vicious", and your personal opinion is all I would ever ask you to back up.
