        Recent events on this list are outside the bounds of
        acceptable behavior for any of our mailing lists.

        1. A member of this list unsubscribed another member of the list.

        2. He verbally abused and threatened physical harm
           to another member of this list.

        3. He forged e-mail to make it appear as if another list member
           had sent the e-mail to the list.

        4. He sent private e-mail to the list in order to publicly
           defame another list member.

        This behavior is inexcusable.

        It will not be tolerated on any FreeBSD mailing list.

        The FreeBSD mailing lists exist to serve the needs of the
        subscribers.   We expect each subscriber to conform to the
        norms of civil discourse and the list charters.

        Therefore, Ian O'Friel has been banned from all FreeBSD
        mailing lists.  He will not be allowed to send mail to any
        of the FreeBSD mailing lists.  He will not be allowed to
        resubscribe to the lists for an indefinite period of time.

        Tim Gerchmez, the other list member involved in this incident 
        has been suspended from the lists for two weeks.

        Whenever a list subscriber has an issue with another list
        subscriber, that person must bring the situation to the
        attention of myself or another core team member for resolution.

        The mailing list charters and "Rules of the Road" are in the
        FreeBSD Handbook: Section 27.1 "Mailing Lists" and Section
        27.1.3 "List charters".  The Handbook is available in 
        /usr/share/doc and as well as
        http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook.html.
