WHATS WRONG WITH TOP POSTING IN ALL CAPS AND NO PUNCTUATION!?!?!?!

:)

No one has complained to the moderators that CoC is being violated. and if they 
did, there’s a whole bunch of safeguards to ensure that it’s not being misused. 
 I do occasionally (once or twice a year?) place specific members back on 
moderate temporarily so that I can intercept heated discussions before they 
spiral out of control, but I’ve tried to keep moderation rapid enough that I 
don’t think it’s intrusive. Nothing on this list is time critical, IMO, and I 
also note that new members are moderated _by default_.

Also, if someone thinks that the CoC is being over applied (!?) or the list 
moderation is too heavy handed (!?) on this list, this list is also not the 
place to discuss it. That place would be conduct...@python.org, and I’m sure 
they would appreciate any concerns anyone has to convey.

best,
