For the sake of list "governance": I concur that, to ensure healthy
discussions, tones are as important as mail content. Which is why ---
wearing my list administrator admin --- I've asked Bryan both publicly
on this list (first) and privately (then) to avoid inflammatory
comments.

For the avoidance of doubt, I've then invited John Sullivan as list
co-admin, in order to have the two main communities participating on
this list represented.  We'd rather stay idle as list admins and not
have to do anything, so please behave :-)

I'm sorry to learn from this exchange that past "heated" exchanges have
driven Mason away. If there is some margin to reconsider the decision,
please do; otherwise, I'd understand.

Cheers.
