The mail coming form the CCCB argues that, although they have interest in an initiative such as guifi.net, they have been told from the Catalan administration (they do not specify more than that so we do not know exactly from where the decision came from) that the antenna had to be removed. CCCB is still a public institution and has to follow this type of directives. Although, precisely as a public institution, it should look for the public interest, IMHO. And guifi.net, so far, does no harm to the public interest. Or does it? (Big quotation mark here). Even if it did, an explanation of the reasons that lead to this decision as well as knowing from where the decision came from are minimums one could expect from their institutions. Because otherwise, the decision seems totally arbitrary; to say the least.

Contacts have already started in order to know exactly what the reasons are, who the decisions came from (Not to point an accusative finger but to know who to argue with).

Should not the “public institutions” at large be more “kind”? More generous in the type of accounts they give to their citizens? Specially when dealing with people who have proved to accomplish many agreements with them before? As in many other cases, one wonders when and why certain agreements with catalan administration are successful whereas other don’t.
