What exactly Did he do? What kind of violation?

Without going into too much detail, because I feel it's wrong discussing
somebody's merits and mistakes publicly, it should suffice to say that a
number of people repeatedly complained about his general impatience and
rudeness. Some felt intimidated and even after long discussions he did
not accept the criticism or come to the realisation that it might have
been his actions that triggered many of these events.

I did learn that these discussions were all based on email and IRC. People do behave differently if you talk to them in person, or on the phone. I do not want to question the decision of the CC in this matter, but for future issues I would like to see an interaction either on the phone or in face before such a decision is made. Language barriers shouldn't matter, Ubuntu is not an anglo-american only project.

That said we very much value the hard work he put into Ubuntu.

I second that. I did see a lot of value in his contributions in the natty release cycle without becoming aware of the social issues myself.
