In all seriousness, Roland does bring up many valid points, however they are often lost due to the demeanor use to present them.
I do think if qt had a qt-med-interest or qt-fusa-interest where the needs of medical device deverlopers or functional safety developers was the primary concern, his views would likely be less obscure and more in the majority.

The challenge is the mix of valid and invalid items. It is easier to react to things that are clear violations to our CoC: http://quips-qt-io.herokuapp.com/quip-0012-Code-of-Conduct.html and nothing else. On the positive side, we have not had that much of these over the years. We have not been banning people regularly, so we also lack a bit of precedence with this. Technically it is a trivial thing to remove someone from a mailing list. The challenging part is to decide when it is time to do that.

On top, with his ramblings and often totally wrong assertions (the "April's fool link"-gate scandal has been absolutely hilarious, almost as the subsequent attempt to regain some credibility, yeah .. nice try) he has now managed to scare the hell out of me the next time I'll be tied to a medical device: the mere chance he may be behind it now makes me extremely nervous. Even if it's only a blood pressure monitor. Losing valuable people in the mailing list and, at some point, the mailing list at all is like throwing away a Ferrari because a pidgeon keeps shitting on it. I'd argue that getting rid of the pidgeon is a more sensible solution.
