I have been the victim of Stefan's CoC violations on more than one occasion. He added me to nosy list of a ticket just to offend and humiliate me. For this reason I personally asked the SC to make a sincere apology a mandatory requirement for Stefan's reinstatement as a core dev. I would have been fine with a private apology. However Stefan has also verbally attacked non-core contributors. In one case another core dev and I contacted the contribute in private to apologize and ensure that the contributor was not alienated by Stefan's attitude. Therefore it makes sense that the SC has requested a public, general apology. Why are you more concerned with the reputation of a repeated offender and not with the feelings of multiple victims of harassment? As a victim of Stefan's behavior I feel that an apology is the first step to reconcile and rebuild trust.
