In the UK at the end of the evening there is a well known phrase used in places that serve alcohol. "Time gentlemen please." The post that set this off had an element of frustration and it was unfortunate that the subject was a sensitive one at that time. With a bit of good will it could have

Rafael, Saying things like "x is childish" is not in keeping with good manners. I think the larger point is that this space is not "gentle." We clearly need a CoC or at the very least to enforce the rules we (OSM) already have in place. OSM is not so special from every other internet community.

Hi, Pete: Yes, I forgot to say my opinion about the user who said he was unsubscribing. In my opinion, it's childish to quit an open forum, where anyone can subscribe, just because somebody says something you don't like. Specially when you see already some people telling you that no one can

I feel almost all friction on this list, right now and in the past, has been between "those that want to organize" and those that do not want to be organized. The hot mailinglist is the only one in the openstreetmap lists I see this happen. Maybe somebody with a background in social behaviour

Just to clear the air. I misspoke in my initial post when I said the HOT CoC would be enforced on this list. I've since learned that the HOT list is not administered by HOT and thus our community crafted CoC does not apply here. Note: it does apply to all other HOT communication channels,

Hi Rafael, I see your point about the CoC and ownership of the list. But that was only the third paragraph of Dale's email. The fact remains that a person was told they are one of a hated group of people and left the list. It's a loss. Are we comfortable with that? Is it just the way it is and

Hi, Dan: The thing here is that hot@openstreetmap.org is, as far as I know, an OSM mailing list, not HOT US inc.'s. I would find it weard that another OSM mailing list was governed by the Red Cross, and that talk-es was governed by the Spanish Government, for example. Cheers, Rafael. On

Hi It does seem to me that more clarity would be good here, i.e. slightly disentangling the lines of accountability regarding the hot@ mailing list. Mikel's response has logical sense, but it's probably not clear to the average participant in the hot@ mailing list whether they are automatically
