Description Andreas K. Hüttel archtester gentoo-dev 2018-04-16 20:51:37 UTC 
Dear Infra,

please enact a one-month list ban on gentoo-project for Daniel Robbins (currently <drobbins@funtoo.org>).

Rationale: Deliberate public posting of private conversations with the 
intention to discredit, see
https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-project/message/0499e6fc4444a183b3c5e2ac4ba6579d

Carried in a comrel team vote with 6 yes votes and 3 team members not replying.

Thanks.

I have already been banned for these posts. I should not be double-banned.
Comment 3 Daniel Robbins 2018-04-16 23:50:11 UTC 
Make sure I am not banned on -nfp.

I was directed to ban on -project, so that was the only list affected.

Comment 5 Daniel Robbins 2018-04-17 00:18:15 UTC 
I made the determination that slandering a developer in private is something that is bad. This excerpt was part of a longer conversation where mgorny was trying to brainstorm ways to 'get rid of' shentino. While you may have an official process to handle this that I didn't follow, being a whistleblower for bad behavior on the project is somewhat questionable as a rationale for your continued persecution of me on mailing lists. May I ask what steps are being taken, if any, regarding mgorny's 'behind the scenes' steps to eliminate a developer from the project that he considered a political enemy? And I am assuming that ComRel actually discourages this type of behavior?
Comment 6 Daniel Robbins 2018-04-17 00:23:41 UTC 
I am also curious why I had no opportunity to discuss this issue with ComRel, why this "bug" appeared last night of all times for something that was posted quite a long time ago.
Comment 7 Daniel Robbins 2018-04-17 00:25:53 UTC 
Ah, this is UTC, so it just happened a few hours ago. Can you guys assure me that this is not retaliations for my ongoing critique of ComRel on the gentoo-nfp mailing list? Do you have logs to back this up?

I can't speak to reasoning but give them 24 hours, they are mainly located in the EU.

The silence is deafening.
