Not at all. His beliefs are nothing to do with it, and never have
been. I'm not sure where you got that from.

You sent me a mail during a rather long flamewar. While I was
grateful to receive it, I haven't yet replied to it, nor to any other
public or private mail on that subject, for the past two weeks. I
thought it would be better to let the flamewar die down. Everything
that people wanted to say has already been said many times over, so I
didn't think there anything more constructive to be gained from
perpetuating it.

It was about enforcing the list codes. I'll ask the listmasters to
look at this as well.
