What case? Ian raised a bunch of general questions about how we plan on enforcing our CoC, with no reference to any specific incident. You seem to be convinced that this is about some specific incident and, further, about forcing some specific action about that specific incident, but so far as I can tell, this belief on your part is not based on anything that's been said in this mailing list. Even if you're right and this is all inspired by some specific incident, the general questions are still worth discussing seriously in their own right. There's no need to dismiss the entire conversion (or, worse, be flippant about it in a way that implies that Debian doesn't care about the experience of people on its mailing lists or at its conferences) just because you *think* you disagree with the motives of the person who raised the issues. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
