I would propose a more lenient rule:

   - No flaming! (i.e. no ad hominem attacks, and no profanity)
   - Perpetrators who repeat the offense after being reprimanded will be
   put on moderation for a month. The list moderators will approve all mails
   except those that contain “flaming“.

This way a member can still participate but the rest of us be spared from
reading the insults.

If we cannot agree on committee etiquette, i.e. rules about interaction
which respects human dignity, we will not succeed in setting up rules about
anything else either.

I propose the following rule:

   - No flaming! (i.e. no ad hominem attacks, and no profanity)
   - Perpetrators who repeat the offense after being reprimanded will be
   blocked for one month.

Feel free to discuss, add and/or amend. I still think we have to start
somewhere to get our interaction to an acceptable level again. There are
some widely agreed-upon netiquette standards out there (e.g. [1]-[3]; the
slide inserted below is from [4]). I would have hoped that we don't need
such rules but frequent flare-ups over the years have finally convinced me
otherwise.

I herewith *ask for votes on my proposed rule* within the usual 7-day
deadline. Should discussion lead to additions or amendments (like including
more detailed rules from the examples I listed below), the deadline will be
postponed accordingly.

Fwiw,
Oliver

I support Michael's call to stop offensive rants. And to be precise: Miloš,
I perceive your posts and attitude to be highly disruptive (and that is not
just my personal opinion but based on the standards of committee etiquette
of several other non-profit organisations I'm familiar with) - it is
impossible to work together in the face of such accusations and language.
Please change and interact with us in a civil way. If you cannot do that, I
support Michael's suggestion to reconsider your participation here.


I see this kind of emails useless. I've already said I will do the
same whenever provoked and I've already said what you should do to
"reconsider" my position here.
