Right now I'm not going to address the issue of whether you should or
should not help finish DebConf6 matters, but I will point out that in
the email where the DPL made the delegation which he later withdrew, it
was clearly limited in scope to be about "the decision of which of the
two cities [i.e. EDI and SJJ] will host the next DebConf [i.e.,
DebConf7]", and not related to anything else about DebConf. Similarly,
in his withdrawal email, he refers to the delegation as being about "the
decision on where to hold DebConf 2007" or "the venue decision". Check
the emails for yourself if you don't recall these details.
It appears to me that him granting a delegation beyond what was already
the status quo and then removing it leaves the status quo unchanged from
before the delegation, and it further seems that none of this needs to
affect your status in or involvement with the DebConf team, either for
DebConf6 issues or beyond. Certainly most other DebConf team members
whose delegations were granted and withdrawn seem to have interpreted it
that way. How you react is, of course, your decision.
