Frankly, Xah Lee, I find it ironic that you see fit to complain about abuse of the IRC channel when you have apparently felt free to ignore the many complaints about your behavior on this and other newsgroups over many years. "As ye sew, so shall ye reap". I imagine that your reputation has preceded you, and that dash (whom I *do* know) is simply looking to keep a well-known nuisance from bothering the rest of the users on the channel. For the present my sympathies are all with him. The PSF will, however, investigate this issue and I will report back to you off-list in due course. regards Steve -- Steve Holden Chairman, Python Software Foundation The Python Community Conference http://python.org/psf/ PyCon 2010 Atlanta Feb 19-21 http://us.pycon.org/ Watch PyCon on video now! http://pycon.blip.tv/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
