I object to this request, and request that Isis sysop status be left
alone.

Isis has repeatedly asked for clarification, in very polite terms.  I
have not seen attempts to answer him.

Isis is acting out of concern for his own legal liability.  I think it
would be the right thing to do for you, Jimbo, or for Tarquin to give
Isis a brief note of assurance that he is not liable.

As you may or may not have noticed, Isis works as a paralegal.  He has
experience of how things work in the law, so has a better idea than the
rest of us if he actually is in legal danger or not.  Far better to have
him onside and working for us, than to snub him and lose his valuable
services.
