Honestly I find this a bit unrealistic. ie. even if Paul has done said soul 
searching, a 2 week timeline on some epiphany is a bit unrealistic to ask, let 
alone its not clear to me how he would be able to communicate said epiphany 
unless it would entail him basically recanting is entire past.

At any rate let me try and propose another approach.

Here are a few core assumptions on which my suggestion is based:

1) posting to this list is not time sensitive in the sense that a few hours, or 
even a day delay is no problem (unless of course a vote is about to expire)
2) Paul does not intend to bring about the consequences that people attribute 
to his communication style

Based on this assumption I would propose that Paul, at least for a certain 
amount if time submit his postings to a form of “advice process”:
http://guides.shiftbase.net/advice-process-2/ (note I didn’t really find a nice 
and compact explanation and this is the best I found).

The fundamental idea is that Paul would submit his postings to a subgroup to 
get advice on the wording. He is however not obligated to integrate said advice.

This way Paul’s technical abilities should remain available to the group 
un-altered. Paul’s ability to critique things he finds worthy of critique also 
remains un-altered, albeit with a bit of a delay due to the advice process. It 
would also potentially indirectly help with the accusation of insufficient 
throttling. All the while Paul could, within a safe space get feedback on what 
part his communication could be problematic and he can then choose to use this 
feedback to remove the problematic bits, while keeping his intended message 
intact. The long term goal is of course that through this process, we get to a 
point where this advice process is no longer necessary.

I am not sure how to implement this from a technology implementation or who a 
sensible subgroup is for this. But I wonder if this is even a feasible remedy 
for all parties involved in theory?
