I was INTENTIONALLY putting others in the same position that the e-mail put
me AND I reinforced the point by INTENTIONALLY referring to US DoD.

to point it out, Mr. During, would have been to model the change you would
like to see yourself.
CEE = Central and Eastern Europe.

Would it be unreasonable to ask that a notice to
a general mailing list
from an organizational unit such as CEE actually had the full name of the
organizational unit? Even the two linked Meta pages did not contain the
name. Only the Eventbrite page had it. Some mailings seem to have
wandered
in from the US DoD or some other country's
bureaucracy. It doesn't seem
unreasonable to me that the opening post for a new thread should not have
any acronym or initialism, but should have the topical organization,
event,
proposal, or whatever spelled out (Yes, even
CoC.). It would seem to me
that such is a requirement for the kind of inclusiveness we are allegedly
seeking.
