Hi Naomi,

I would hope it would be possible to remove an individual from any ML.  I am 
not proposing that we tolerate or moderate unhelpful behavior.  I am proposing 
that we refine appropriate ways of stopping unwanted behavior by eventually 
figuring out the best response that is non-combative, takes the high road, yet 
shuts down unhelpful discussions.  That would be the "development" of a "tool" 
that folks on other lists can use to manage unhelpful behavior.  Creating more 
MLs is not a solution other projects can use as easily.

That said, ML's are cheap, so no objections to giving it a try.

My 2 cents,
-Alex

    I've thought a bit more about Ross's proposal, and I think I've come to the
    conclusion that I prefer:
    
    diversity@apache.org - for questions and answers, debate, etc
    diversity-...@apache.org - a place for this committee to get work done
    
    I say this because there seems to be some consensus that we want to start
    building a FAQ and a list of resources. and it makes sense to me that that
    activity is being driven by the discussions on a list under our direct
    purview (i.e. diversity@apache.org)
    
    Alex, if someone tries to derail work being done on diversity-dev@ with
    "debate" and requests to be educated or "convinced", and they refuse to
    move that stuff to diversity@, we can, quite simply, remove them from the
    list
    
    removing troublesome people from diversity-dev@ takes a lot less energy
    than trying to tolerate/moderate their presence
