His English grammar is so random that I often can't figure out what he is saying (*), and he is either extremely terse or extremely verbose. If you can get a majority of the committers to vote to ban him we should do it -- but that's a high bar (many committers probably don't care enough to vote). __________ (*) The PEP process bug was an example -- I couldn't tell if he was asking "what is the process" or suggesting "please add a pointer to a description of the process to the peps repo README.txt" or trying to propose an alternative process. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
