I share this feeling. Note that since he was demoted as a member, he
tagged 3 posts in p.d.o.* I read them, because I was interested in the
technical content. All 3 had those resentful/provocative bits which
could easily escalate to, say, yet another unhealthy thread in -project.
Also, people who followed -- for years -- the events which led to his
expulsion, know that his words clearly spread false information about
the process:
2022/01/14 - "After having been (again) demoted (timed perfectly to my
round birthday!) based on flimsy arguments" and "please direct your
complaints at the responsible entities in Debian.".
2022/02/09 - "Since I am not using Debian (lovely politics!)"
2022/03/22 - "most of my activity around Debian has come to a complete
halt (Send your thanks to da-manager@debian.org!)"
What could be next?
Unfortunately, he seems unable to break this pattern.
