Reviewing, I may have misinterpreted the message from PSF Executive Director regarding the situation.
It does appear that python-ideas moderators contacted postmaster@. Appears I misread a message saying “it looks like it’s happening on python-dev too” to mean that the request was for both lists. Should I disable moderation on python-dev? -Ernest On June 29, 2020 at 4:20:45 PM, Tim Peters (tim.pet...@gmail.com) wrote: [Ernest W.

I do at least 99% of python-dev moderation actions, and this was news to me. I'm not going to reject anything Python-related based on whether I (or anyone else) agree(s) with its political spin. If that's what's wanted, please contact whichever python-dev moderator(s) did request this, and tell them the job of actually doing python-dev moderation is all theirs until this passes. Otherwise anything Python-related short of pure abuse will be approved. Seriously. I'm not going to reject sincere "you're a racist!" posts or "I know you are, but what am I?" posts. But I don't even know whether that's what this is about - all I've seen is some moderately heated discussion, none of which I would have rejected.
