This is a difficult decision for me. I have never been forced into a
situation like this. However, Brandon's posts to this list have been
disruptive to the community and myself. I have therefore come to the
conclusion that Brandon needs to be kicked off the list.
I hope we can put this issue behind us soon, and move forward with the
development of the CMake build system.
Bill, the guy already sent a public email with personal stuff. He will
have enough punishment with anyone being able to google for it.
For anyone that is tired of him, my suggestion is: email filter or
killfile. That suggestion goes to Brandon too (to filter Sebastian or
whatever was his name). End of story.

The reason why I would vote to keep Brandon is, that, unlike that guy, I
found two or three things he did that I found/find useful on this list
(and why I sometimes answer his posts).
a) He surfs the web... a lot. Thanks to him I found out about premake
and buildr (both of which I had no clue existed). I have yet to find
something he linked to truly useful, but there's a chance he'll stumble
upon it, even if by sheer chance. He certainly found cmake before I did.
b) In the past, he did raise some valid issues with cmake. He was the
first to notice bad mingw/msys support, for example. He was first to
point out regexp issues. And since he seems to only code in cmake, he
seems to find a lot of (minor) bugs.
c) I actually took the time to look at his mozilla translator (what can
I say? boring day). It is not great or something I would use. But it
is certainly above totally clueless levels. I would rather keep him
around and help him with his code (and for those that are better than
myself at it, with his people skills too).
