Liam,

why shocked? A list is a free place. Discussion is welcome. However, 
repeated provocation and flaming is not. The list however must remain a 
pleasant place for everybody.

I am, and I hope we all are, open to suggestion and critique. More than 
once, critique is answered with other critique, but it is then analyzed, 
acknowledged and implemented one way or the other. Perhaps without 
saying that explicitely.

We accept many kind of contributions. It must not be a patch or a 
commit. It may be a bug report, a wiki entry, a package, piece of 
documentation, a new icon. It is not just about coding.

However, if somebody repeatedly write just to troll, annoy, disturb and 
does that on repetition, then well, his words are no longer welcome.

I really dislike when it gets to kicking somebody out of a list. But I 
tell you, I had contact with some users and they were shocked and 
displeased by the stuff written on our mailing list and were 
distanciated from gnustep... because of the ML! That is even less 
acceptable!
