Co-founder or not?

Chapel Guardian have found more information of interest concerning the argument over whether Donald Schwartz was a co-founder of Chapel of Awareness. It was already clearly established in the bylaws who the founders were, in life and in spirit. This issue of Donald's position of co-founder only erupted when the Friends of Chapel rallied around Donald to sue the church and then, later, expel members and ministers not inline with the Friends agenda. If Donald had been a clearly-established co-founder from its foundation, then the following statement from Rev. Nell Rose Smith should have been irrelevant because the new web site would have had him named automatically, if it was established fact:

"Also, Rev. Donald should be identified as the Co-founder."

The Friends of Chapel were directly involved in the original website for years until the schism of 2009-10, and the issue of co-founder was never addressed until out of nowhere it came up when they organized and sued, under Nell's name. Nell's statement, in Chapel Guardian opinion, only shows an attempt to continue and solidify the grandstanding they started in 2009.
