Instead, this should be the result of a process which seeks to address the issue in a private way with key persons and then maybe include more senior figures like the DPL to mediate or to appoint some neutral party to do this. I have thought of the possible idea of finding a debian representative who lives in the locality to have a f2f meeting (or alternatively a phone call) as a way for this party to seek a neutral person to help to address their concerns and then have that person issue a report to the DPL. Because email and other virtual communication leave room for all kinds of misunderstandings and meeting in-person with someone impacts the issue more significantly then email flamming pingpong. If the attempt at mediation are not successfull, then starting an explusion should be considered. Assuming that these issue are not of a strictly technical nature and can not be handled by the technical committee. just my 2 yen. cheers, Kev -- | .''`. == Debian GNU/Linux == | my web site: | | : :' : The Universal | debian.home.pipeline.com | | `. `' Operating System | go to counter.li.org and | | `- http://www.debian.org/ | be counted! #238656 | | my keysever: pgp.mit.edu | my NPO: cfsg.org |
