This constant state of strife is getting too common on this mailing list. Unfortunately, it seems like a few certain individuals are bent on forcing their viewpoint and attacking their opponents whenever the issue is even brushed upon. This debate is NOT an issue related to running servers and thus shouldn't even occur on this list - there is a specific forum on SPUF named "Server Feedback" in which this issue should ultimately be brought up by those interested in discussing it.
While the list in theory would be the right place to bring it up, the fact that Valve does not even respond when these contentious discussions occur here is a pretty good reason to file it on the Valve Source game issue tracker, where they'll at least barely acknowledge it by marking it as a feature request and hopefully where none of this pointless fighting will occur.
