My stance on the issue: People have different strengths and I think that sometimes it is necessary to overlook negative attributes of a person if the person does valuable contributions. I'm not really sure in what way carol contributes though, so letting her have traits of an "official" GIMP:er (like IRC op status) does indeed not really make sense. However, if a person does *negative* contributions, like confuse newcomers and add noise to mailing lists and bug trackers, one has to consider more serious actions, like first asking the person to leave (already done in this case), and if he/she doesn't, ban him/her. I absolutely hate the idea of banning people, but if I have to choose between keeping carol and one of the most contributing people to the GIMP, the choice is obvious... Carol, I want to stress that I have nothing personal against you, I think you have an interesting personality (maybe it's because I haven't been around so long yet :d), but in situations like this; I have no choice, sorry. - Martin Nordholts _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
