Thanks for clarifying that.  Please note that *that*, which is not your
point, was my one and only point, because it to me is a gross
accusation that - sorry from uding that deeply concerning term again -
ought to trigger disciplinary action, in my opinion.

Ok, but I did not mean to drag you in on a mob squad against accusers,
and you moved on to raising another point...:

It is my understanding that participation in Debian generally involves
responsibility of ones actions, and that responsibility is meaningless
without consequences in case of neglect.

It is my understanding that we have voted down explicit specifics on
*which* consequences neglect related to the involvement of LLM has, and
that we instead voted up, explicitly, to reuse our existing frameworks
for consequences.

Do I understand you correctly, that in your understanding of our latest
vote, we decided that the use of LLM was *omitted* from disciplinary
actions? Or do you agree with me and your point is simply that you find
it "particularly concerning" that a need for disciplinary action has
occurred so soon after the vote? Or something else?

I am not trying to trick you here - I genuinely fail to separate what
you express concern over from what you consider our rules. Or if you
perhaps consider rules unimportant (generally or in this conversation).

On concerns: I am concerned too, that we discuss disciplinary actions.
Those in the DFSG team are dear friends, and I really dislike the
situation we are in right now. I find it particularly concerning that
we ae in this situation so soon after a vote on this very issue. And
now that you bring it up, I do find it interesting (in a bad way) that
we voted against explicit venues for disciplinary actions, because that
to me got us here: In a situation where we don't know what we as a
community want to do when some of us does not follow the rules that we
decide on through a general resolution.

An no, I am not talking about rules that I or perhaps Ian might want to
replace our current rules - I am talking about the rules that we have.
