Hello all,
As a member of the PMC I think that Jim should have raised the question to the
PMC rather than taking this action on his own. The people involved should have
had the opportunity to explain their behaviour before being banned. I think
this should be the way to go in any case.
With respect to Mikel's resignation, I think he should reconsider his decision
since losing him would be a big loss for the project. I guess this would
require that Jim O'Regan makes a step back, restore the accounts involved and
let the PMC take the decision. He could write a brief report advocating for
their banning.
Regards
