formalized this would have to be handled like the creation of a list, so someone would file a bug against lists.debian.org, get supporters, we count someday and act accordingly.

We run the lists, we have more enough to do to keep the spam level low. So the step-in and adding a ban on someone personal is an action of last resort (and was in fact a result of strong requests), when all other things fail (and it takes really at least two for a flamewar). If we really want to control about who is allowed to post to a spoecific list, then we should switch over to moderation, and that has to be handled by a moderators-team, which leaves the burden on other people. The current status quo, with one person banned from posting to d-project is fine for me, i currently see no reason to extend the ban, i more think about lifting that ban again someday, but for now we keep an eye on the situation. Cord, Listmaster, but not nessecarily speaking for the Listmaster-team. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
