I'm guessing that many of us believe and all of us would hope that the sort 
of problems that Mr Gauss is facing shouldn't arise in a coho community 
because of the ways we (hope to) interact with and understand each other.
Mr Gauss's two emails address two different topics, but share his obvious 
discomfort with the way things appear to be happening in his community. 
However the fact that (to my mind) he appears to be seeking validation by 
appealing to the Coho-L  list makes me wonder what is really happening 
within his community and what efforts may have been made to address his 
complaints within the community.  I find myself very reluctant to make any 
judgement without hearing something of the "other side of the story" - which

Mr Gauss omits.
Closed meetings and secret records indeed sound very troublesome - that is 
unless the open meetings are perhaps being hijacked and the records misused 
to further an agenda far from the hoped for goals of cohousing.
