+1 to Svaksha & Pratham for speaking out. Anand Pillai, your conduct is unbecoming of a python community member, leave alone a member of PSF and IPSS.
IMHO, there should be no place on PSF for people like you. In your first response, you come off as super arrogant & haughty, as if having started this mailing list confers you special powers to make fun of PyLadies. There are consequences to actions. I for one would like to not have Anand Pillai as member of PSF or president of IPSS. cheers ashish Sent from mobile device. Excuse typos.
