I'm not going to call out names.  Those affected have been notified.
They are now unable to post to this list, though they can remain
subscribed if they want to read posts.  They are also welcome to
submit support questions to the OpenOffice Community Forum [1]. So no
one has been denied the ability to get free community support for
OpenOffice.  If anyone feels they were unfairly treated they are
welcome to escalate to the PMC at priv...@openoffice.apache.org.

In the future I would not expect things to carry on this long, nor for
there to be a need for a "report".  Moderators are empowered to ban
disruptive users.  We're also adding more moderators for this list, so
there is ample coverage across time zones.

We should all appreciate that there are over 500 subscribers to this
mailing list.   Staying on-topic, brief, and focused on the purpose of
this list (OpenOffice user technical issues) is a necessary discipline
for ensuring a pleasant experience for us all.

Regards,
