I too respected the Anangu people's request not to climb in 2009, but had previously climbed 'in ignorance' back in 2000.
There will be those who express their belief that as an Aussie they have the right to climb Uluru, & some who will express their ingrained hatred of indigenous Australians but I consider that the need to respect the right of the traditional owners to say what is & is not acceptable, ie. no longer a 'request', is important.
IMHO the delay of two years before implementing the decision should not be necessary but I guess it's a political decison.
"Closing the climb is not something to feel upset about but a cause for celebration."
