Description Robin Johnson archtester

2009-08-19 21:21:59 UTC

Requesting permission to outright ban this address from contacting us (complete mail block, nothing inbound whatsoever), as well as closing their Bugzilla account.

He subscribed to the following lists, around Jan 25 20:57:43 2009.
gentoo-alpha
gentoo-alt
gentoo-announce
gentoo-bsd
gentoo-commits
gentoo-desktop
gentoo-dev
gentoo-doc
gentoo-kernel
gentoo-laptop
gentoo-mips
gentoo-security
gentoo-sparc
gentoo-translators
gentoo-user
gentoo-xbox

Google indicates that his address turns up in several places, where all he does is leave behind an insult in English or Spanish. Nothing productive whatsoever.

The IP that the email actually originated from according to Hotmail was 189.139.30.237, which is in Mexico (and fits the profile of English and Spanish insults).

Robin,

I see Mike already removed the user from the MLs.
As discussed in IRC, please ban him from our mail infra, but let him keep is bugzilla privs for the time being.

@spgera_tol@hotmail.com:
You have *one* last chance to convince us not to ban you completely from all Gentoo related mediums.
