• Aveloc the Younger's modern name is Harvey Palmer

• According to the Board Minutes of Oct 2002, his R&D was issued at the January 2002 Board meeting.

• The minutes for the January 2002 Board meeting are not available on-line as of this writing.

• Possibly the only R&D ever instigated and carried out solely at the Corporate level. The Crown and Kingdom of An Tir did not officially ever call for an R&D.

• This issue remains one of serious contention, with many people within An Tir believing the R&D was driven by personal interests. No official list of reasons have ever been given by the Corporation regarding this R&D. There was a nebulous list of 14 'Charges' initially given by the Corporation, but although many were factually proven to be either incorrect or fabricated, no final list of charges was ever given to Aveloc about which charges were found to be with merit.

• After exhausting all avenues within the Corporation, a mundane lawsuit was eventually filed that attempted to force the Society to repeal the R&D. The case was dropped, and although the SCA paid Aveloc's legal fees as well as additional compensation, neither party admitted fault.

• There is still some hope by the people who care for Aveloc that the BoD will re-visit the R&D and consider re-instatement.

• King Thorin VI, on request from Dexter Gauntlet, affirmed that Aveloc's awards and titles are still honored and maintain their place in the An Tir Order of Precedence.
