Transfer of Control of the Domain

I feel like I missed the first part of this conversation. Is Sass even involved in this? Oh does he work for equal.vote? What's the story?
Who is it supposedly getting transferred from and to?

Your feeling is well-grounded in fact.
At a meeting of the council, however long ago any of those happened, there was agreement that the forum project would be officially allied with equal.vote. And Ms. Wolk said that equal.vote could collect donations for the forum. Subsequent to that, I started requesting another council meeting because of questions raised on here about the topic hierarchy. After some time of not getting agreement for a meeting date, and after receiving flack here about several of my posts, I announced on here that I wasn't confident in wanting to continue to participate in making decisions about the forum anymore and that I would resign from the council effective as of the end of the next meeting. Sara Wolk eventually responded to that in e-mail talking about my transferring control of the instruments underlying the forum to equal.vote. Sass is a staff member and he is now in Oregon. I responded emphasizing that among those instruments, the main key is control of the domain name. I had registered it with one firm, and equal.vote uses a different firm for the domain names they control. It takes coöperation by the giving and receiving owners to transfer a domain name from one agent to another. Ms. Wolk said equal.vote staff would handle the details with me. I have asked for dialog on that and gotten silence.

@jack-waugh Do they pay anything? I'm sorta wondering why they deserve to be stewards of the forum... they've totally dropped the ball as far as I'm concerned.
