I guess you could argue that svn.debian.org is adminned by a delegate of
the DPL, and a GR could force them to restore Sven's commit access. But
the d-i team could then move their svn archive somewhere else and refuse
to provide Sven with commit access.
A single developer can hardly hold back the will of the entire project.
If the d-i team takes action that the rest of the project does not agree
with then the project is perfectly capable of deciding that they are no
longer the d-i team. That is obviously not the case here but it doesn't
preclude the possibility.
I agree that Sven overstepped the limits of good taste in his list
conduct. I also see why Sven would snap a twig over #d-i killing the PPC
install. That is a pretty radical step.
