Apparently, /me asking was still useful as I wasn't the only person with English parsing problems on that matter. Going back on Steve's mail makes it clear that the ban was just asked and not put in placebut it is also clear that the misinterpretation was still possible... And, of course, sorry for assuming that listmasters would take a punitive action without informing the right body (in that case, d-private). signature.asc Description: Digital signature

The truth is that you cant read or parse english. :) "I've asked" is not "I told them and they immediately did". -- bye, Joerg With a name like "TikiWiki", it seems only appropriate that if you do get co-maintainers, you should request teletubbies.alioth.debian.org. -- Steve Langasek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

it might be a small misunderstanding. 'Required' is not the same as
'requested' in English (though they are in some latin languages).
Steve McIntyre has requested the ban; but it has not been "required"
yet ("shown to be needed").
Apologies if you knew this already and I misunderstood your email :-)
