Yes it is. ASF is not political, and AFAIU fairly international, and for the 
non-USA community, this doesn't concern us any more than dirty politics in 
other countries.

When I called upon more transparency at ASF, I was 'crucified' by mainly the 
US-based ASF members, saying that secrecy is a necessity. IMHO, that attitude 
leads to the alleged actions, or the suspicion that the alledged actions 
could have occurred. 
The way you make the bed, is the way you are going to sleep.
