Who's Right?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Sure.  I'm not convinced either, but this list has got the monkey references in my head as the most likely answer, though not every monkey is him.  

I do think the Cowled Cenobite that leads Severian from The Autarch to the Green Room is Inire.
