This has been an interesting thread. It seems pretty clear that CESA/Tormey/Hyslop had a set of conditions precedent to their taking on the role of managing SSC. Like them or not, think they were "necessary" or not, they were disclosed. The vote failed.
I predict that the issue will be re-raised and passed.
(Sorry, but this is just funny: Like him or not, Clark Brisson has built in B.F.A. the closest thing to a rival that CESA has)
