I've offered to be a point person for folks who believe that they were severely impacted by Leverage 1.0, and have related information, but who might be unwilling to share that info, for any of a number of reasons. 

In short,

• If someone wants to tell me private meta-level information (such as "I don't want to talk about my experience publicly because X"), so that I can pass along in an anonymized way to someone else (including Geoff, Matt Fallshaw, Oliver Habryka, or others) - I'm up for doing that.
  • In this case, I'm willing to keep info non-public (ie not publish it on the internet), and anonymized, but am reluctant to keep it secret (ie pretend that I don't have any information bearing on the topic).
    • For instance, let's say someone tells me that they are afraid to publish their account due to a fear of being sued.
    • If later, as a part of this whole process, some third party asks "is there anyone who isn't speaking out of a fear of legal repercussions?", I would respond "yes, without going into the details, one of the people that I spoke to said that", unless my saying that would uniquely identify the person I spoke to.
    • If someone asked me point-blank "is it Y-person who is afraid of being sued?", I would say "I can neither confirm or deny", regardless of whether it was Y-person.
  • This policy is my best guess at the approach that will maximize my ability to help with this whole situation going forward, without gumming up the works of a collective truth-seeking process. If I change my mind about this at a later date, I will, of course, continue to hold to all of the agreements that I made under previous terms.
• If someone wants to tell me object level information about their experience at Leverage, their experience of this process, to-date etc, and would like me to make that info public in an anonymized way (eg writing a comment that reads "one of the ex-Leveragers that I talked to, who would prefer to remain anonymous, says...") - I'm up for that, as well, if it would help for some reason.
• I'm probably open to doing other things that seem likely to be helpful for this process so long as I can satisfy my per-existing commitments to maintain privacy, anonymity, etc.
