Pierre, I'm new to the team, mailing list, etc. (honestly, I never had a chance to formally introduce myself to everyone) but it looks as if Piotr has had several instances in the past where he's had to discipline Thomas. I doubt this is an action that Piotr took lightly. Further, I doubt those packages will suddenly go unmaintained. Please continue working on mailman3, it will benefit the community far more than the outcome of this apparent disciplinary action. Cheers, Ian
