All moderation is performed in consultation with other core team
members, including Dan who is chiefly responsible for handling conduct
reports.

Threads like this are definitely not an appropriate forum to raise
grievances about conduct, or about moderation. It is unlikely anybody
will change their mind, but it is almost guaranteed that people will
end up saying inappropriate things.
If you have any issue with conduct in a community space, including any
issues with moderation actions like bans, it is appropriate to make a
private report to the conduct alias as outlined in the code of
conduct:
https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
Each report will be reviewed, and a determination made one way or
another about what to do next.
Please note, also, that absent a constructive appeal of a moderation
action, the action must stand. Attempting to evade the action by, for
example, creating many new accounts on the IRC server (especially with
vulgar variations on the names of core team members) or by rotating
your IP address to avoid detection, turns an issue of conduct into an
issue of IT security for the project and will be dealt with as we
would deal with a breach or a spam attack.
Cheers.
