Sven has repeatedly and consistently demonstrated an inability to work well 
with other people.  All efforts to encourage him to act in a more sensible 
manner have failed, as have efforts to encourage him to fork the d-i project, 
contribute patches, or do anything else useful.

Now he has posted content from debian-private to a public list.

I believe that the first step in response to this is to prevent him from 
making posts to Debian lists without moderation, this can be achieved by 
configuring the list servers to reject mail from him and requiring him to 
have a more sensible person forward his messages (almost anyone will do).

If he bypasses the ban (EG by using an email address other than the one that 
the list servers are configured to reject) then we will have to expell him 
from the project.

Incidentally is it possible to deny Debian developers access to debian-private 
or is expulsion the minimum act to remove someone's read access to that list?

If for any reason someone starts a GR to expell Sven I will vote in favor of 
it.

Sven, almost 12 hours ago I told you via private email that your past actions 
had convinced me to not oppose the expulsion of you from the Debian project 
and that future actions on similar lines would convince me to support your 
expulsion.  You have now convinced me.  If you want me to change my mind then 
write some good code.


PS  What do we do with a thread that gets CC'd to public and private lists?
