I think the IRC case and the trac case are different

The data is taken from
an admin page of trac that AFAIK lists all activities a user did
then email addresses where manually removed to preserve privacy

the summary was created using
egrep -o 
'(comment|status|resolution|keyword|version|component|summary|owner|priority|reproduced|type|description).*changed'
 Balling.txt  | sort | uniq -c

The numbers on the left are counts not ticket numbers, that is Balling
seems to have edited 2194 times a comment field

according to
grep comment Balling.txt | grep -o 'Ticket [0-9]*' | sort -n | uniq -c | wc
grep status Balling.txt | grep -o 'Ticket [0-9]*' | sort -n | uniq -c | wc
grep resolution Balling.txt | grep -o 'Ticket [0-9]*' | sort -n | uniq -c | wc

he changed the comment fields in 922 distinct tickets
he changed the status field in 449 distinct tickets
he changed the resolution field in 248 distinct tickets

thx

I have not interacted with this user and I am just a mediocre contributor.
But from my experience running forums and IRC networks in the past,
this always ends in one process...

   1. toxic user comes along
   2. upsets people repeatedly, which also wastes time
   3. admins ponder ban, which wastes time
   4. they get banned anyway
   5. repeat for the next toxic user that comes along

For reference, Anton and I banned "balling" from IRC in November. We
(FFmpeg's CC) have since then received a request to ban him from trac as
well.

The ban on IRC was following what happened in #ffmpeg-devel on 11/23/2023 (
https://libera.irclog.whitequark.org/ffmpeg-devel/2023-11-23)
I've copied the logs from that link between 14:43 and 18:53 below here for
reference. My nick is "BBB", and Anton's nick is "elenril". We also
received help from jess, one of Libera's admins.

Hi everyone

Some members of the CC want to indefinitely ban Balling
from trac. And as our doc/community.texi says:
"Indefinite bans from the community must be confirmed by the General Assembly, in a 
majority vote."

Thus some CC member wishes to involve the public here
(really theres no other option, the GA cannot discuss/vote on what it doesnt 
know)

Also people have asked for more transparency and i strongly agree with 
transparency.

As reference, and to make it possible for the community to discuss
this easily without too much google searching. Ive attached the
list of all changes in trac done by Balling.

I do not and never did support permanently banning contributors.

If these are supposed to be ticket numbers on the left, I checked the 
first two and neither have comments from Balling.


If these are summaries/counts on the left, could you please elaborate on 
how you generated this data? I'm not super familiar with the trac user 
interface, but iirc you can embed the search in a query string.

„Or maybe the community will decide against a vote.“ How would that even work?

Of course you could propose a vote on having a vote but that seems like 
unnecessary
meta-voting…

Its unbiased information, its simply the full list of changes done by the
user id on trac
One can read a random subset of the comments/changes or fetch the referred
tickets and run some AI over all and ask for a summary

If one already has formed an oppinion or does not want to vote then one can
also ignore it. Or maybe the community will decide against a vote.

I just tried to provide what i can so people have the information if they want
it.

To me, every contributor is valuable. I want people to work together as a
team. But if people are asking for others to be banned thats a sign
something is not right.

thx

Rewriting code that is poorly written but fully understood is good.
Rewriting code that one doesnt understand is a sign that one is less smart
than the original author, trying to rewrite it will not make it better.

I already have an opinion about this topic due to various things I read from
him on various OSS projects communication channels, but I am wondering
how the attached document is helpful for the GA to get an idea of  what
this is about?

Do you expect us to go through all of this list and visit each Trac ticket
and look at what they wrote there?

Maybe I am missing something here on the purpose of this document.

 Balling does have a quite different style in his language. Not sure
 what is a good term, street style, ghetto style?

 He used the same style of language towards me 10 days ago:
